Chromosome | 6 | NCBI Gene Number | 232784 |
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. Involved in positive regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including dendrite development; general adaptation syndrome, behavioral process; and walking behavior. Predicted to be located in nucleoplasm. Predicted to be active in nucleus. Is expressed in central nervous system; early conceptus; and genitourinary system. Orthologous to human ZNF212 (zinc finger protein 212). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a null allele exhibit premature death, Purkinje cell degeneration, and abnormal motor function. [provided by MGI curators] |
