Chromosome | 10 | NCBI Gene Number | 71137 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable DNA-binding transcription activator activity, RNA polymerase II-specific and RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including cilium assembly; negative regulation of smoothened signaling pathway; and regulation of gene expression. Located in nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; eye; future brain; genitourinary system; and liver. Orthologous to human RFX4 (regulatory factor X4). PHENOTYPE: Inactivating null allele or homozygous point mutation alleles exhibit missing dorsal midline structure of the cortex including the subcommissural organ and neonatal lethality. Heterozygous null mice have congenital hydrocephalus. [provided by MGI curators] |
