Summary: Enables several functions, including DNA-binding transcription activator activity, RNA polymerase II-specific; identical protein binding activity; and transcription cis-regulatory region binding activity. Involved in several processes, including male germ cell proliferation; regulation of nuclear division; and regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including gamete generation; positive regulation of male gonad development; and positive regulation of meiosis I. Located in cytoplasm and nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including early conceptus; gonad; gonad primordium; and mesonephros. Orthologous to human DMRT1 (doublesex and mab-3 related transcription factor 1).

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
