Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables DNA-binding transcription repressor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific and RNA polymerase II transcription regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Involved in negative regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Acts upstream of or within bone morphogenesis; cellular response to organic cyclic compound; and post-anal tail morphogenesis. Predicted to be located in nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; brain; branchial arch; embryo ectoderm; and embryo mesenchyme. Orthologous to human SP5 (Sp5 transcription factor). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a targeted mutation in this gene are fertile and show no overt phenotype. [provided by MGI curators] |
