About Meis2

Summary

Predicted to enable DNA-binding transcription activator activity, RNA polymerase II-specific and RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Involved in pancreas development; response to growth factor; and response to mechanical stimulus. Predicted to be located in nucleus. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in cleft palate, cardiac defects, and intellectual disabillity. Orthologous to human MEIS2 (Meis homeobox 2).
