Description
Predicted to have DNA-binding transcription factor activity and RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Involved in several processes, including embryonic morphogenesis; fin development; and olfactory nerve formation. Predicted to localize to nucleus. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in split hand-foot malformation 1 with sensorineural hearing loss. Is expressed in several structures, including fin; forebrain; pectoral fin bud; pharyngeal arch; and presumptive structure. Orthologous to human DLX5 (distal-less homeobox 5).
