Predicted to enable DNA-binding transcription activator activity, RNA polymerase II-specific and RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Predicted to be involved in anterior/posterior pattern specification; positive regulation of branching involved in ureteric bud morphogenesis; and positive regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Predicted to act upstream of or within embryonic skeletal system morphogenesis and myeloid cell differentiation. Predicted to be located in cytosol and nuclear body. Predicted to be active in nucleus. Orthologous to human HOXB7 (homeobox B7). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
