Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.0.0)
Enables RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including mesenchyme morphogenesis; regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II; and respiratory system development. Located in nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; central nervous system; embryo mesenchyme; extraembryonic component; and genitourinary system. Used to study persistent fetal circulation syndrome. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in persistent fetal circulation syndrome. Orthologous to human FOXF1 (forkhead box F1).
