Predicted to enable DNA-binding transcription factor activity and sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Predicted to act upstream of or within regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Predicted to be located in nucleus. Is expressed in cardiovascular system; mesenchyme; musculoskeletal system; pharyngeal arch; and primary germ layer. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in blood platelet disease and thrombocytopenia. Orthologous to human FLI1 (Fli-1 proto-oncogene, ETS transcription factor).
