Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.1.0)
Enables DNA binding activity. Involved in generation of neurons and olfactory bulb development. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including nervous system development; positive regulation of Notch signaling pathway; and positive regulation of oligodendrocyte differentiation. Predicted to be located in cytoplasm. Predicted to be active in nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; future midbrain; and genitourinary system. Orthologous to human GSX2 (GS homeobox 2).
