Predicted to enable chromatin binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including generation of neurons; positive regulation of Rac protein signal transduction; and positive regulation of lamellipodium assembly. Predicted to act upstream of or within several processes, including innate vocalization behavior; positive regulation of histone modification; and righting reflex. Predicted to be located in growth cone and nucleus. Predicted to colocalize with actin cytoskeleton. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in autosomal dominant non-syndromic intellectual disability 26. Orthologous to human AUTS2 (activator of transcription and developmental regulator AUTS2).
