Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.2.0)

Enables DNA-binding transcription factor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific; chromatin DNA binding activity; and sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Involved in several processes, including cardiac neural crest cell migration involved in outflow tract morphogenesis; deltoid tuberosity development; and left/right pattern formation. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including circulatory system development; diencephalon development; and digestive tract morphogenesis. Located in cytoplasm and nucleus. Part of transcription regulator complex. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; central nervous system; embryo mesenchyme; genitourinary system; and musculature. Used to study Axenfeld-Rieger syndrome type 1 and glaucoma. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Arts syndrome; Axenfeld-Rieger syndrome; Axenfeld-Rieger syndrome type 1; anterior segment dysgenesis 4; and ring dermoid of cornea. Orthologous to human PITX2 (paired like homeodomain 2).
