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. Predicted to be located in cytosol and nucleoplasm. Predicted to be active in nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; early conceptus; genitourinary system; limb; and retina. Orthologous to human DMTF1 (cyclin D binding myb like transcription factor 1). PHENOTYPE: Homozygous mutants exhibit partial postnatal lethality, small size, and decreased thymocyte number. Some mutants exhibit seizures and/or obstructive uropathy. Males have dilated seminal vesicles. Mice develop spontaneous tumors in the second year of life, and are susceptible to induced tumors.
