该基因编码ETS转录因子家族的一个成员，其定义为存在一个保守的ETS-DNA结合域，该结合域识别靶基因中的核心一致DNA序列GGAA/T这些蛋白作为许多基因的转录激活或抑制因子，参与干细胞的发育、细胞的衰老和死亡以及肿瘤的发生另一种编码不同亚型的剪接转录变体已经被描述用于该基因。[由RefSeq提供，2011年7月]
This gene encodes a member of the ETS family of transcription factors, which are defined by the presence of a conserved ETS DNA-binding domain that recognizes the core consensus DNA sequence GGAA/T in target genes. These proteins function either as transcriptional activators or repressors of numerous genes, and are involved in stem cell development, cell senescence and death, and tumorigenesis. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described for this gene.[provided by RefSeq, Jul 2011]
