Summary
Enables DNA-binding transcription repressor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific and RNA polymerase II transcription regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Involved in negative regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Acts upstream of or within positive regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Predicted to be located in cytosol and nucleoplasm. Is expressed in several structures, including branchial arch; central nervous system; early conceptus; genitourinary system; and sensory organ. Orthologous to human KLF12 (Kruppel like factor 12). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
