Gene Summary

Enables DNA-binding transcription factor activity and RNA polymerase II transcription regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Acts upstream of or within forebrain development; neural crest cell differentiation; and neural tube closure. Located in nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; early conceptus; limb mesenchyme; sensory organ; and trunk paraxial mesenchyme. Orthologous to human ZIC5 (Zic family member 5).
