Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.0.0)
Predicted to enable DNA-binding transcription activator activity, RNA polymerase II-specific; DNA-binding transcription repressor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific; and RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Acts upstream of or within cellular response to heat. Predicted to be located in cytosol and nucleoplasm. Predicted to be active in nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; gut; male reproductive gland or organ; trunk somite; and urinary system. Orthologous to human TFEC (transcription factor EC).
