CC -!- FUNCTION: [Isoform 1]: Transcription factor that is selectively and
CC transiently expressed in cleavage-stage embryos (PubMed:28459457).
CC Binds to double-stranded DNA elements with the consensus sequence 5'-
CC TAATCTAATCA-3' (PubMed:28459457, PubMed:28459454, PubMed:29572508,
CC PubMed:30540931, PubMed:30315230). Binds to chromatin containing
CC histone H3 acetylated at 'Lys-27' (H3K27ac) and promotes deacetylation
CC of H3K27ac. In parallel, binds to chromatin that lacks histone H3
CC acetylation at 'Lys-27' (H3K27ac) and recruits EP300 and CREBBP to
CC promote acetylation of histone H3 at 'Lys-27' at new sites
CC (PubMed:26951377). Involved in transcriptional regulation of numerous
CC genes, primarily as transcriptional activator, but mediates also
CC repression of a set of target genes (PubMed:17984056, PubMed:27378237,
CC PubMed:26951377, PubMed:28459457, PubMed:28459454, PubMed:29618456,
CC PubMed:30540931, PubMed:29572508). Promotes expression of ZSCAN4 and
CC KDM4E, two proteins with essential roles during early embryogenesis
CC (PubMed:27378237, PubMed:26951377, PubMed:28459457, PubMed:29618456).
CC Heterologous expression in cultured embryonic stem cells mediates also
CC transcription of HERVL retrotransposons and transcripts derived from
CC ACRO1 and HSATII satellite repeats (PubMed:28459457). May activate
CC expression of PITX1 (PubMed:17984056). May regulate microRNA (miRNA)
CC expression (PubMed:24145033). Inappropriate expression can inhibit
CC myogenesis and promote apoptosis (PubMed:26951377, PubMed:28935672,
CC PubMed:29618456). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17984056,

CC -!- FUNCTION: [Isoform 2]: Probably inactive as a transcriptional
CC activator, due to the absence of the C-terminal region that is
CC important for transcriptional activation. Can inhibit transcriptional
CC activation mediated by isoform 1. Heterologous expression of isoform 2
CC has no deleterious effect on cell survival.
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:29618456}.
CC -!- SUBUNIT: Binds DNA as a monomer (PubMed:30322619, PubMed:30540931).

CC detected in embryos at the 2-cell stage, or at the 8-cell stage
CC (PubMed:28459457). Detected in induced pluripotent (iPS) cells, but
CC expression is suppressed upon differentiation to embryoid bodies.

CC -!- DOMAIN: The two homeobox domains are arranged in a head-to-head
CC orientation when bound to double-stranded DNA, each domain binding to
CC one of the two DNA strands. Together, the homeobox domains can be
CC considered to bind DNA with the consensus sequence 5'-TAATCTAATCA-3',
CC but due to the head-to-head orientation of the DNA-bound domains, the
CC first homeobox domain binds to the consensus sequence 5'-TAAT-3', and
CC the second homeobox domain binds DNA on the opposite strand, with the
CC consensus sequence 5'-TGAT-3' (PubMed:30322619, PubMed:30540931). Both
CC homeobox domains confer nuclear targeting (PubMed:15709750).

CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:30540931}.
CC -!- DOMAIN: The C-terminal region is required for efficient activation of
CC transcription from target promoters (PubMed:26951377, PubMed:29618456).
CC It mediates interaction with EP300 and CREBBP (PubMed:26951377).
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:26951377, ECO:0000269|PubMed:29618456}.
CC -!- DISEASE: Facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy 1 (FSHD1) [MIM:158900]:
CC A degenerative muscle disease characterized by slowly progressive
CC weakness of the muscles of the face, upper-arm, and shoulder girdle.
CC The onset of symptoms usually occurs in the first or second decade of
CC life. Affected individuals usually present with impairment of upper
CC extremity elevation. This tends to be followed by facial weakness,
CC primarily involving the orbicularis oris and orbicularis oculi muscles.
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10433963, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19320656}. Note=The
CC gene represented in this entry is involved in disease pathogenesis. The
CC disease is caused by deletion of an integral number of units of a 3.3-
CC kb tandem repeats, termed D4Z4 macrosatellite, located on chromosome
CC 4q35. In unaffected subjects, the D4Z4 array consists of 11-150
CC repeats, while in FSHD1 patients, the array is reduced to 1-10 repeats
CC (PubMed:19320656). DUX4 is located in D4Z4 macrosatellite which is
CC epigenetically repressed in somatic tissues. D4Z4 chromatin relaxation
CC in FSHD1 results in inefficient epigenetic repression of DUX4 and a
CC variegated pattern of DUX4 protein expression in a subset of skeletal
CC muscle nuclei. Ectopic expression of DUX4 in skeletal muscle activates
CC the expression of stem cell and germline genes, and, when overexpressed
CC in somatic cells, DUX4 can ultimately lead to cell death.
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:19320656}.
CC -!- MISCELLANEOUS: DUX genes are present in 3.3-kilobase elements, a tandem
CC repeat family scattered in the genome found on the short arms of all
CC acrocentric chromosomes as well as on several other chromosomes.
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10433963, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17984056,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:19320656, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21060811}.
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the paired homeobox family. {ECO:0000305}.
