Protein attributes

Sequence length	309 AA.
Sequence status	Complete.
Protein existence	Evidence at transcript level

General annotation (Comments)

Function	Sequence-specific transcription factor which is part of a developmental regulatory system that provides cells with specific positional identities on the anterior-posterior axis. Binds to sites in the 5'-flanking sequence of its coding region with various affinities. The consensus sequences of the high and low affinity binding sites are 5'-TAATGA[CG]-3' and 5'-CTAATTTT-3'.
Subcellular location	Nucleus.
Domain	The proline stretch works as a part of the transcriptional activation domain.
Sequence similarities	Belongs to the Antp homeobox family. Deformed subfamily. Contains 1 homeobox DNA-binding domain.
