Predicted to enable DNA-binding transcription factor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific and RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Acts upstream of or within dorsal/ventral pattern formation; embryonic limb morphogenesis; and proximal/distal pattern formation. Predicted to be located in nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including 1st branchial arch; brain; embryo ectoderm; sensory organ; and tail bud. Orthologous to human SP8 (Sp8 transcription factor).
