    Summary
    Predicted to enable DNA-binding transcription repressor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific; RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity; and protein dimerization activity. Predicted to be involved in negative regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II and positive regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Predicted to act upstream of or within nucleocytoplasmic transport. Predicted to be located in cytosol; nuclear membrane; and nucleoplasm. Predicted to be active in nucleus. Orthologous to human MLX (MAX dimerization protein MLX). [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.
