| Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
| description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.1.0) Predicted to enable DNA-binding transcription activator activity, RNA polymerase II-specific and RNA polymerase II transcription regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Acts upstream of or within negative regulation of cell differentiation and retina morphogenesis in camera-type eye. Predicted to be located in cytosol and nucleoplasm. Predicted to be part of chromatin. Predicted to be active in nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; genitourinary system; heart; nervous system; and sensory organ. Used to study chromosome 1p36 deletion syndrome. Orthologous to human CASZ1 (castor zinc finger 1). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a knock-out allele exhibit complete lethality throughout fetal growth and development and abnormal heart development associated with edema, decreased fetal cardiomyocyte proliferation, myocardium hypoplasia, ventricular septal defect, and altered heart shape and Z line formation.
