Predicted to enable DNA-binding transcription repressor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific and RNA polymerase II transcription regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Predicted to be involved in negative regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Predicted to act upstream of or within germ cell development. Predicted to be located in nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including early conceptus; foregut; and genitourinary system. Orthologous to human ZFP37 (ZFP37 zinc finger protein).
