Its expression pattern suggests that it may be involved in neurogenesis and germ cell development. The protein can homodimerize and bind DNA, but in vivo targets have not been identified. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants.[provided by RefSeq, Jun 2013] Expression Biased expression in testis (RPKM 11.0), thyroid (RPKM 1.5) and 7 other tissues See more Orthologs mouse all
