Enables sequence-specific double-stranded DNA binding activity. Predicted to be involved in angiogenesis and regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Predicted to act upstream of or within camera-type eye development; hemopoiesis; and positive regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Predicted to be located in cytoplasm and nucleus. Predicted to be part of chromatin. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
