Summary
Predicted to enable DNA-binding transcription factor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific and RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Predicted to be involved in anterior/posterior pattern specification and regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Predicted to act upstream of or within embryonic skeletal system morphogenesis and erythrocyte homeostasis. Predicted to be active in nucleus. Orthologous to human HOXB6 (homeobox B6).

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
