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 male anatomical structure morphogenesis; mechanosensory behavior; and negative regulation of synapse pruning. Predicted to be located in nucleus. Expressed in several structures, including AVG; body wall musculature; head neurons; intestine; and vulval muscle. Is an ortholog of human DMRT1 (doublesex and mab-3 related transcription factor 1) and DMRTC2 (DMRT like family C2).
Map position created from combination of previous interpolated map position (based on known location of sequence) and allele information. Therefore this is not a genetic map position based on recombination frequencies or genetic experiments. This was done on advice of the CGC.
