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 and RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Involved in positive regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including embryonic organ development; hippo signaling; and transition between fast and slow fiber. Located in nucleus. Part of TEAD-YAP complex. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; early conceptus; embryo mesenchyme; genitourinary system; and tooth. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Sveinsson chorioretinal atrophy. Orthologous to human TEAD1 (TEA domain transcription factor 1). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for disruptions in this gene die between embryonic day 11 and 12.5. Abnormalities were seen in heart development. [provided by MGI curators] |
