Protein attributes

Sequence length337 AA.
Sequence statusComplete.
Protein existenceEvidence at transcript level

General annotation (Comments)

Function

Activates E box-dependent transcription in collaboration with TCF3/E47. May be a trans-acting factor involved in the development and maintenance of the mammalian nervous system. Transactivates the promoter of its own gene.

Subunit structure

Efficient DNA binding requires dimerization with another bHLH protein.

Subcellular location

Nucleus Probable.

Tissue specificity

Specific to the nervous system of both embryos and adults. Highest levels in the cortical plate of the cerebrum.

Sequence similarities

Contains 1 bHLH (basic helix-loop-helix) domain.
