Summary: Enables DNA binding activity, bending and DNA-binding transcription factor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific. Involved in male sex determination. Acts upstream of or within male gonad development; negative regulation of gene expression; and negative regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Located in nucleus. Part of transcription regulator complex. Is expressed in several structures, including brain; early conceptus; and genitourinary system. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in 46,XX sex reversal 1; 46,XY sex reversal; and 46,XY sex reversal 1. Orthologous to human SRY (sex determining region Y).

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.
