Summary
Enables protein heterodimerization activity and transcription cis-regulatory region binding activity. Contributes to DNA-binding transcription factor activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including cellular response to oxidative stress; cellular response to prostaglandin stimulus; and positive regulation of transcription, DNA-templated. Located in cytoplasm and nucleus. Part of transcription regulator complex. Is expressed in several structures, including digestive system; gill; heart; pleuroperitoneal region; and sensory system. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Alzheimer's disease; cataract; hepatocellular carcinoma; macular degeneration; and tuberculosis. Orthologous to human NFE2L2 (NFE2 like bZIP transcription factor 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

NCBI Reference Sequences (RefSeq)

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.
