Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.0.0)
Enables DNA-binding transcription activator activity, RNA polymerase II-specific; RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity; and transcription coregulator binding activity. Involved in positive regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including cellular response to calcium ion; osteoblast development; and positive regulation of osteoblast differentiation. Predicted to be located in nucleoplasm. Predicted to be part of protein-DNA complex; transcription factor AP-1 complex; and transcription repressor complex. Predicted to be active in nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; brain; genitourinary system; integumental system; and limb. Orthologous to human JUND (JunD proto-oncogene, AP-1 transcription factor subunit).
