Tshz3 - teashirt zinc finger family member 3

Predicted to enable DNA binding activity; DNA-binding transcription factor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific; and chromatin binding activity. Involved in several processes, including positive regulation of synaptic transmission; regulation of respiratory gaseous exchange by nervous system process; and smooth muscle tissue development. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including kidney development; positive regulation of smooth muscle cell differentiation; and sensory perception of touch. Located in mitochondrion. Is expressed in genitourinary system and peripheral nervous system. Orthologous to human TSHZ3 (teashirt zinc finger homeobox 3). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
