CC -!- FUNCTION: Transcriptional repressor. Plays a fundamental role in
CC notochord formation, acting within the mesodermal region.
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11585804}.
CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Nucleus {ECO:0000305}.
CC -!- TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Expressed throughout the embryo during pre-gastrula
CC stages. Localized to the dorsal lip of the blastopore (Spemann
CC organizer) during early gastrulation, after which expression continues
CC in tissues derived from the organizer. Expressed in the notochord
CC during mid-gastrulation. During neurulation, expressed in the
CC notochord, archenteron roof and the prospective floor plate. Also
CC expressed in the region that will become the epiphysis, the pineal body
CC precursor. By the early tailbud stages, expression is limited to
CC posterior notochord and floor plate before becoming restricted to the
CC tip of the tail in the tadpole. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:8095482}.
CC -!- DEVELOPMENTAL STAGE: Expressed both maternally and zygotically.
CC Expression increases markedly at the mid-blastula transition (MBT) and
CC peaks at the onset of gastrulation before declining rapidly during the
CC gastrula stages. Another decrease in expression levels occurs towards
CC the end of the neurula stages, although expression is retained into the
CC late tailbud stages. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:8095482}.
CC -!- INDUCTION: By activin, derriere, fgf2/bFGF and wnt8. Repressed by
CC bmp4/dvr-4. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10068640, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8095482}.
