Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.3.0)

Enables DNA-binding transcription repressor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific and RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Involved in negative regulation of DNA-templated transcription and regulation of myelination. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including central nervous system myelination; negative regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II; and regulation of gliogenesis. Located in nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including 4-cell stage embryo; central nervous system; gut; neural ectoderm; and thymus. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in spastic ataxia 8. Orthologous to human NKX6-2 (NK6 homeobox 2).
