CC -!- FUNCTION: Plays a critical role in eye formation by regulating the
CC initial specification of retinal cells and/or their subsequent
CC proliferation. Binds to the photoreceptor conserved element-I (PCE-
CC 1/Ret 1) in the photoreceptor cell-specific arrestin promoter.
CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Nucleus.
CC -!- ALTERNATIVE PRODUCTS:
CC Event=Alternative splicing; Named isoforms=2;
CC Name=1;
CC IsoId=Q9Y2V3-1; Sequence=Displayed;
CC Name=2;
CC IsoId=Q9Y2V3-2; Sequence=VSP_053558, VSP_053559;
CC -!- TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Expressed in the developing eye and weakly
CC expressed in the adult retina.
CC -!- DISEASE: Microphthalmia, isolated, 3 (MCOP3) [MIM:611038]: A disorder
CC of eye formation, ranging from small size of a single eye to complete
CC bilateral absence of ocular tissues. Ocular abnormalities like
CC opacities of the cornea and lens, scaring of the retina and choroid,
CC and other abnormalities may also be present.
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:14662654, ECO:0000269|PubMed:24033328}. Note=The
CC disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this
CC entry.
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the paired homeobox family. Bicoid subfamily.
CC {ECO:0000305}.
