| Function |
May be involved in modulating the expression of photoreceptor specific genes. Binds to the Ret-1 and Bat-1 element within the rhodopsin promoter (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.
|
| Subcellular Location |
Nucleus {ECO:0000255|PROSITE- ProRule:PRU00108}.
|
| Tissue Specificity |
Expressed in retina. Stronger expression in cells of the outer nuclear layers than in cells of the inner nuclear layers. Also weakly detected in brain, testis and spleen. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15028672}.
