    Summary
    Enables DNA-binding transcription activator activity, RNA polymerase II-specific and RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Involved in positive regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Acts upstream of or within regulation of DNA-binding transcription factor activity. Located in granular component. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; eye; genitourinary system; gut; and skeletal muscle tissue. Orthologous to human CARF (calcium responsive transcription factor).

    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.

    1. NM_001285463.1NP_001272392.1  calcium-responsive transcription factor isoform 2

      Status: VALIDATED

      Description
      Transcript Variant: This variant (2) has multiple differences compared to variant 1. These differences result in a distinct 5' UTR and cause translation initiation at an alternate start codon compared to variant 1. The encoded protein (isoform 2) has a distinct N-terminus and is shorter than isoform 1.

      Status: VALIDATED

      Description
      Transcript Variant: This variant (4) has multiple differences compared to variant 1. This variant is represented as non-coding because the use of the 5'-most expected translational start codon, as used in variant 1, renders the transcript a candidate for nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD).
