CC -!- FUNCTION: Inhibits DNA binding of TCF3/E47 homodimers and TCF3
CC (E47)/NEUROD1 heterodimers and acts as a strong repressor of Neurod1
CC and Myod-responsive genes, probably by heterodimerization with class a
CC basic helix-loop-helix factors. Despite the presence of an intact basic
CC domain, does not bind to DNA (By similarity). In the brain, may
CC function as an area-specific transcription factor that regulates the
CC postmitotic acquisition of area identities and elucidate the genetic
CC hierarchy between progenitors and postmitotic neurons driving
CC neocortical arealization. May be required for the survival of a
CC specific population of inhibitory neurons in the superficial laminae of
CC the spinal cord dorsal horn that may regulate pruritis. Seems to play a
CC crucial role in the retinogenesis, in the specification of amacrine and
CC bipolar subtypes. Forms with PRDM8 a transcriptional repressor complex
CC controlling genes involved in neural development and neuronal
CC differentiation (PubMed:22284184). {ECO:0000250,

CC -!- SUBUNIT: Interacts with PRDM8. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:22284184}.
CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Nucleus {ECO:0000305}.
CC -!- TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Brain-specific, with the highest expression in the
CC cerebellum. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12213201}.
CC -!- DEVELOPMENTAL STAGE: Expressed at 11.5 dpc within the neuroblast layer
CC (NBL) of the central retina. As retinogenesis progressed from central
CC to peripheral retina from 12 dpc to 15.5 dpc, expression expanded to
CC the entire retina with the majority of Bhlhb5+ cells being detected in
CC the proliferating NBL. From 17.5 dpc to birth (P0), expression became
CC restricted to the ganglion cell layer (GCL) and to the inner boundary
CC of the NBL (INL; inner nuclear layer), presumably the newly formed ACL
CC (amacrine cells). Predominantly expressed in post-mitotic cells in the
CC developing retina. Expressed from 9.5 dpc in the neural tube,
CC restricted to longitudinal ventral columns of neurons, extending from
CC the hindbrain to the caudal spinal cord. In the developing cortex, at
CC 12.5 dpc, expressed in the nascent cortical plate of the dorsal
CC telencephalon (at protein level). During peak production of deep layer
CC neurons between 12.5 and 13.5 dpc, restricted to postmigrational
CC neurons, with no expression in the proliferative ventricular zone (VZ)
CC or in migrating neurons. Between 15.5 and 17.5 dpc, when superficial
CC layer neurons are generated, strongly expressed in the cortical plate
CC and weakly in presumptive migrating neurons and in the subventricular
CC zone (SVZ). Does not colocalize with proliferating progenitors in S or
CC M phase in either the VZ or the SVZ; restricted to postmitotic
CC glutamatergic projection neurons during neurogenesis. Not detected in
CC cortical GABAergic interneurons or their extracortical sites of
CC genesis, the medial and caudal ganglionic eminences (at protein level).
CC Postnatally, down-regulation begins at the junction of the cingulate
CC cortex and neocortex; by postnatal day 4 (P4), down-regulation well
CC into the neocortex is observed anteriorly, with the exception of the
CC most superficial layer. At P4, expressed in neocortical layers II, III,
CC IV, and V. Within layer VI, expressed in only very rare scattered TBR1
CC negative neurons. Down-regulation continues from medial to lateral,
CC exhibiting a markedly reduced expression by P14. Expression varies
CC strikingly along the A-P axis with a precipitous decrease in the
CC rostral cortical plate. At 12.5 dpc, highly expressed medially in the
CC cingulate cortex with weak expression in the rest of the cortex. At
CC 15.5 dpc, expressed in a high caudomedial to a low rostrolateral
CC gradient. Between 15.5dpc and P0, expression increases laterally and
CC the gradient gradually transforms into a sharp border between the
CC presumptive rostral motor and sensory domains. During the first
CC postnatal week, there is a further transformation from homogeneous
CC expression across sensory cortex into discrete areas of high expression
CC coincident with the primary sensory areas. At P4 and P7, expressed in
CC primary visual cortex, primary auditory cortex and distinct primary
CC somatosensory representations, including the vibrissal barrel field. In
CC the spinal chord, transiently expressed in V1, V2, and dI6 interneurons
CC at 10.5 dpc. Also observed in a subpopulation of late-born neurons that
CC migrate to the superficial layers of the dorsal horn. Expression starts
CC shortly after the neurons exit mitosis at 13.5 dpc and persisting for
CC up to 2 weeks postnatally. At birth, about one-third of dorsal horn
CC neurons expressing the protein are excitatory and two-thirds
CC inhibitory. Also expressed in the developing eye and hair follicles, in
CC the epithelial layer of the cochlea in the developing inner, and in the
CC nasal epithelium. At 16.5 dpc, expressed outside the CNS, in particular
CC in all sensory organs; in the nasal pits, transcripts can be detected
CC in the olfactory epithelium. In the developing eye it can be found in
CC the inner and outer retinal layer, and it is also detectable in the
CC sensory layer of the cochlea in the developing inner ear. In addition,
CC expression is found in the developing hair follicles, both in the
CC epithelial component and in the dermal papilla, and in the skin.

CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:18957218, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20346763}.
CC -!- DISRUPTION PHENOTYPE: Null mice exhibits aberrant expression of brain
CC area-specific genes and structural organization in the somatosensory
CC and caudal motor cortices. In somatosensory cortex, vibrissal barrels
CC display postsynaptic disorganization. In caudal motor cortex, anomalous
CC differentiation of corticospinal motor neurons is observed, accompanied
CC by failure of corticospinal tract formation. Mice also develop self-
CC inflicted skin lesions and show significantly enhanced scratching
CC responses to pruritic agents, due to the selective loss of a subset of
CC spinal cord inhibitory interneurons. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:18957218,
