    Summary
    Enables DNA-binding transcription activator activity, RNA polymerase II-specific; RNA polymerase II core promoter sequence-specific DNA binding activity; and promoter-specific chromatin binding activity. Involved in several processes, including cellular response to organonitrogen compound; positive regulation of macromolecule metabolic process; and regulation of synaptic plasticity. Located in cytoplasm and nucleus. Biomarker of several diseases, including liver cirrhosis; lung disease (multiple); middle cerebral artery infarction; pulmonary hypertension; and visual epilepsy. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in asthma. Orthologous to human EGR1 (early growth response 1). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

    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.
