    Summary
    Predicted to enable DNA-binding transcription factor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific and RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Acts upstream of or within developmental pigmentation; regulation of xanthophore differentiation; and wound healing. Located in nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; muscle; neural crest; neural tube; and post-vent region. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma. Orthologous to human PAX7 (paired box 7). [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.
