Dlx2 - distal-less homeobox 2

Predicted to enable DNA-binding transcription activator activity, RNA polymerase II-specific; chromatin binding activity; and nucleic acid binding activity. Predicted to be involved in cell differentiation; negative regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II; and regulation of neuron differentiation. Predicted to act upstream of or within several processes, including negative regulation of Notch signaling pathway; nervous system development; and skeletal system development. Predicted to be located in nucleus. Orthologous to human DLX2 (distal-less homeobox 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
