Function Transcription factor which may play a role in oogenesis. Binds preferentially to the DNA sequences 5'-TAATTG-3', 5'-TAGTTG- 3' and 5'-TAATTA-3' (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.
Subcellular Localization Nucleus {ECO:0000255PROSITE- ProRule:PRU00108}.
Disease Associations Premature ovarian failure 5 (POF5) [MIM:611548]: An ovarian disorder defined as the cessation of ovarian function under the age of 40 years. It is characterized by oligomenorrhea or amenorrhea, in the presence of elevated levels of serum gonadotropins and low estradiol. {ECO:0000269PubMed:17701902, ECO:0000269PubMed:21837770}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.
Tissue Specificity Expressed in ovaries, testes and pancreas. Expressed within all stages of the adult female germline, from primordial follicles through to MII oocytes. {ECO:0000269PubMed:16597639}.
