Bnc1 - basonuclin 1

Predicted to enable DNA-binding transcription activator activity and rDNA binding activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including positive regulation of epithelial cell proliferation; regulation of transcription, DNA-templated; and wound healing. Located in cytoplasm and nucleolus. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; branchial arch; gonad; outer layer of bladder; and skin. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in primary ovarian insufficiency 16. Orthologous to human BNC1 (basonuclin 1). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
