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 regulation of transcription, DNA-templated. Predicted to act upstream of or within negative regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II and regulation of neuron migration. Predicted to be located in nuclear body. Orthologous to human SCRT1 (scratch family transcriptional repressor 1). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
