Function | Involved in the development of several major noradrenergic neuron populations, including the locus coeruleus. Transcription factor which could determine a neurotransmitter phenotype in vertebrates. Enhances second-messenger-mediated activation of the dopamine beta-hydrolase and c-fos promoters, and of several enhancers including cAMP-response element and serum- response element. |
Subcellular Location | Nucleus {ECO:0000255|PROSITE- ProRule:PRU00108}. |
Tissue Specificity | Expressed in neuroblastoma, brain and adrenal gland. |
