Predicted to enable DNA-binding transcription repressor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific and RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Predicted to be involved in negative regulation of cell migration and regulation of cellular macromolecule biosynthetic process. Predicted to act upstream of or within several processes, including negative regulation of cell population proliferation; respiratory gaseous exchange by respiratory system; and suckling behavior. Predicted to be located in cytoplasm. Predicted to be part of transcription regulator complex. Predicted to be active in nucleus. Orthologous to human DACH1 (dachshund family transcription factor 1).
