Predicted to enable DNA-binding transcription factor activity; sequence-specific DNA binding activity; and zinc ion binding activity. Predicted to be involved in regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Is an ortholog of C. elegans
elt-2 and
elt-4. In C. elegans,
elt-2 is involved in several processes, including defense response to other organism; determination of adult lifespan; and positive regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II.
