Function | Required for oligodendrocyte and motor neuron specification in the spinal cord, as well as for the development of somatic motor neurons in the hindbrain. Cooperates with OLIG1 to establish the pMN domain of the embryonic neural tube. Antagonist of V2 interneuron and of NKX2-2-induced V3 interneuron development (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}. |
Subcellular Location | Nucleus {ECO:0000255|PROSITE- ProRule:PRU00981}. Cytoplasm {ECO:0000250}. Note=The NLS contained in the bHLH domain could be masked in the native form and translocation to the nucleus could be mediated by interaction either with class E bHLH partner protein or with NKX2-2. {ECO:0000250}. |
Tissue Specificity | Expressed in the brain, in oligodendrocytes. Strongly expressed in oligodendrogliomas, while expression is weak to moderate in astrocytomas. Expression in glioblastomas highly variable. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11498220, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11526205}. |
