CC -!- FUNCTION: Probable transcription factor. Promotes both hatching gland
CC and neural crest cell fates, two of the cell populations that arise
CC from the neural plate border. Acts downstream of msx1 to induce the
CC neural crest, cooperating with zic1 and mediating signals from both the
CC wnt and fgf8 signaling pathways. Induction of hatching gland cell fate
CC is independent of zic1. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15691759,

CC IsoId=Q645N4-2; Sequence=VSP_053008;
CC -!- TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Expressed in the dorsolateral ectoderm during early
CC and mid-gastrula stages. At late-gastrula and neurula stages, expressed
CC in the lateral neural plate, becoming progressively refined to the
CC neural folds during convergence and extension. Expression is also
CC restricted in the A/P axis, extending into the midbrain but excluded
CC from the forebrain. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10433827,

CC -!- INDUCTION: By wnt-signaling from the posterior mesoderm.
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10433827, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9169853}.
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the paired homeobox family. {ECO:0000255}.
