Exhibits DNA-binding transcription activator activity, RNA polymerase II-specific; RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity; and phosphate ion binding activity. Involved in several processes, including animal organ development; cell surface receptor signaling pathway; and regulation of hemopoiesis. Localizes to cytoplasm and nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; central nervous system; genitourinary system; hemolymphoid system; and liver and biliary system. Orthologous to human STAT5A (signal transducer and activator of transcription 5A).
