Protein Structure
UniProt Annotation
Function Transcription factor. Plays a role in the epithelialization of somitic mesoderm and in the development of cardiac mesoderm. Defines the rostrocaudal patterning of the somites by participating in distinct Notch pathways. {ECO:0000269PubMed:15677726, ECO:0000269PubMed:17306789}.
Subcellular Localization Nucleus {ECO:0000305}.
Disease Associations
Tissue Specificity No expression was detected in adult tissues except the testis. Expression in the testis was regulated developmentally; expressed 2 weeks after birth, and increases, reaching the full expression level in mature testes. {ECO:0000269PubMed:8787751}.
