Summary
Enables DNA-binding transcription factor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific. Contributes to DNA binding activity. Involved in positive regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including photoperiodism; primitive hemopoiesis; and regulation of gene expression. Part of CLOCK-BMAL transcription complex. Is active in chromatin. Is expressed in brain; head; ovary; and photoreceptor cell. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Alzheimer's disease. Orthologous to human CLOCK (clock circadian regulator).

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
