| Primary Identifier | MGI:106034 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
| Chromosome | 12 | NCBI Gene Number | 20474 |
| 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 several processes, including positive regulation of morphogenesis of an epithelium; regulation of DNA-templated transcription; and striated muscle cell differentiation. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including embryonic organ morphogenesis; myoblast migration; and thymus development. Located in cytoplasm and nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including exocrine gland; genitourinary system; nervous system; sensory organ; and tongue. Orthologous to human SIX4 (SIX homeobox 4). PHENOTYPE: Homozygotes for a targeted null mutation are viable, fertile, and exhibit no apparent abnormalities suggesting compensation by other Six family members. [provided by MGI curators] |
