CC -!- FUNCTION: As a homodimer binds DNA via the E-box sequence 5'-CACGTG-3'
CC (PubMed:19632181). Represses lag-2 transcription during embryogenesis
CC via Notch signaling, in an unc-37-dependent manner (PubMed:15935776).
CC Also represses tbx-37 independent of Notch signaling (PubMed:15935776).
CC In the intestine, plays a role in probiotic-mediated protection against
CC infections by pathogens such as S.enterica (PubMed:35263319). This is
CC most likely by positively regulating the expression of genes such as
CC bar-1 upon exposure to probiotic bacteria such as the E.faecium
CC (PubMed:35263319). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15935776,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:19632181, ECO:0000269|PubMed:35263319}.
CC -!- SUBUNIT: Homodimer; binds to DNA as a homodimer.
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:19632181}.
CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Nucleus {ECO:0000255|PROSITE-ProRule:PRU00981,
CC ECO:0000305|PubMed:19632181}.
CC -!- TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Expressed in intestinal cells (at protein level).
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:35263319}.
CC -!- DEVELOPMENTAL STAGE: Expressed in AB cell descendants in embryos.
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15935776, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18003741}.
CC -!- DISRUPTION PHENOTYPE: RNAi-mediated knockdown in the intestine
CC decreases the E.faecium-mediated protection against S. enterica
CC infection (PubMed:35263319). RNAi-mediated knockdown reduces the
CC expression of genes including bar-1 following E.faecium infection
CC (PubMed:35263319). RNAi-mediated knockdown in the germline or the
CC nervous system does not affect E.faecium-mediated protection against
CC S.enterica infection (PubMed:35263319). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:35263319}.
