Description |
heat shock transcription factor 4 |
Gene Summary |
Enables sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Involved in maintenance of lens transparency. Acts upstream of or within lens development in camera-type eye; positive regulation of deoxyribonuclease activity; and regulation of lens fiber cell differentiation. Predicted to be active in nucleus. Is expressed in eye; lens; and solid lens vesicle. Used to study cataract. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in cataract and cataract 5 multiple types. Orthologous to human HSF4 (heat shock transcription factor 4). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022] |
