Enables DNA-binding transcription factor activity and RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including liver development; negative regulation of transforming growth factor beta receptor signaling pathway; and peripheral nervous system neuron development. Predicted to be located in actin cytoskeleton and nucleoplasm. Predicted to be active in nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; future brain; genitourinary system; gut; and retina. Orthologous to human ONECUT2 (one cut homeobox 2).
