Summary
This gene encodes a protein that functions as a transcriptional activator that binds specifically to non-methylated CpG motifs through its CXXC domain. The protein is a component of the SETD1 complex, regulates gene expression and is essential for vertebrate development. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2015]

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.
