Enables several functions, including DNA-binding transcription activator activity; DNA-binding transcription repressor activity; and NF-kappaB binding activity. Involved in defense response to other organism; regulation of DNA-templated transcription; and regulation of peptidoglycan recognition protein signaling pathway. Located in nucleus and perinuclear region of cytoplasm. Is expressed in organism.
