Ovol2 - ovo-like zinc finger 2

Predicted to enable DNA-binding transcription factor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific; RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity; and chromatin binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including negative regulation of cell differentiation; regulation of gene expression; and regulation of signal transduction. Predicted to act upstream of or within several processes, including circulatory system development; embryonic morphogenesis; and regulation of transcription, DNA-templated. Predicted to be active in nucleus. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in posterior polymorphous corneal dystrophy 1. Orthologous to human OVOL2 (ovo like zinc finger 2).
