Chromosome | 1 | NCBI Gene Number | 241066 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables DNA-binding transcription activator activity, RNA polymerase II-specific and RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Involved in positive regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Acts upstream of or within regulation of DNA-binding transcription factor activity. Located in granular component. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; eye; genitourinary system; gut; and skeletal muscle tissue. Orthologous to human CARF (calcium responsive transcription factor). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a null allele have aberrant learning and memory. [provided by MGI curators] |
