Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.0.0)
Predicted to enable RNA polymerase II transcription regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Involved in several processes, including inner ear development; positive regulation of otic vesicle morphogenesis; and positive regulation of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/protein kinase B signal transduction. Located in cell cortex and nucleus. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in pre-eclampsia. Orthologous to human STOX1 (storkhead box 1).
