About Hes6

Summary

Enables DNA-binding transcription repressor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific; RNA polymerase II transcription regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity; and RNA polymerase II-specific DNA-binding transcription factor binding activity. Involved in negative regulation of DNA-binding transcription factor activity and negative regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Acts upstream of or within cell differentiation; nervous system development; and regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Part of transcription regulator complex. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; central nervous system; embryo mesenchyme; genitourinary system; and sensory organ. Orthologous to human HES6 (hes family bHLH transcription factor 6). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
