| Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
| description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables DNA-binding transcription factor activity; RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity; and protein heterodimerization activity. Contributes to nuclear receptor activity. Involved in positive regulation of protein sumoylation. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including embryonic placenta development; positive regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II; and response to hypoxia. Located in cytoplasm and nucleus. Part of transcription regulator complex. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; central nervous system; genitourinary system; respiratory system; and sensory organ. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in renal cell carcinoma. Orthologous to human ARNT (aryl hydrocarbon receptor nuclear translocator). PHENOTYPE: Homozygotes for targeted null mutations exhibit loss of aryl hydrocarbon receptor and hypoxia-inducible factor 1 alpha gene induction, defective angiogenesis of the yolk sac and branchial arches, placental defects, and lethality by embryonic day 10.5.
