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 several processes, including negative regulation of angiogenesis; regulation of gene expression; and regulation of myeloid cell differentiation. Predicted to act upstream of or within several processes, including animal organ development; intestinal epithelial cell maturation; and respiratory system process. Predicted to be active in nucleus. Orthologous to human HOXA5 (homeobox A5). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
