gene: mab-9 [Browse genome (BioProject PRJNA13758)] [Search on AGR]
Caenorhabditis elegans Predicted to enable DNA-binding transcription factor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific and RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Involved in several processes, including negative regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II; nematode male tail tip morphogenesis; and post-embryonic hindgut morphogenesis. Located in nucleus. Expressed in several structures, including B.a; B.p; neurons; proctodeum; and rectal epithelial cell. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in atrial heart septal defect 4; tetralogy of Fallot; and ventricular septal defect. Is an ortholog of human TBX20 (T-box transcription factor 20).
