    Summary
    Predicted to enable protein heterodimerization activity. Acts upstream of or within inner cell mass cell proliferation. Predicted to be located in nucleoplasm and perinuclear region of cytoplasm. Predicted to be part of transcription factor TFIID complex. Is expressed in several structures, including Harderian gland; brain; early conceptus; genitourinary system; and tongue. Orthologous to human TAF8 (TATA-box binding protein associated factor 8). [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.
