Structured_descriptionConcise_descriptionmec-3 encodes a founding member of the LIM (Lin-11, Isl-1, Mec-3) homeodomain family of transcriptional regulators; during C. elegans development, MEC-3 activity is required for proper differentiation and maturation of the mechanosensory neurons; MEC-3 is expressed in the mechanosensory neurons, where initiation of expression is dependent upon the UNC-86 homeodomain protein and maintenance of expression is dependent upon MEC-3 itself and mec-17.Paper_evidenceWBPaper00000502

Automated_descriptionEnables DNA-binding transcription factor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific; RNA polymerase II transcription regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity; and RNA polymerase II-specific DNA-binding transcription factor binding activity. Involved in several processes, including mechanosensory behavior; neuron projection organization; and positive regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Part of RNA polymerase II transcription regulator complex. Expressed in VA neuron; touch receptor neurons; ventral nerve cord; and vulva. Is an ortholog of human LHX1 (LIM homeobox 1) and LHX5 (LIM homeobox 5).Paper_evidenceWBPaper00065943
