Enables DNA-binding transcription factor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific and sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Involved in several processes, including positive regulation of neuron projection development; positive regulation of nucleobase-containing compound metabolic process; and response to cobalt ion. Part of transcription regulator complex. Biomarker of polycystic kidney disease. Orthologous to human ATF1 (activating transcription factor 1).
