ELT-2

WormBase ID: WBGene00001250

WormBase description: Is an ortholog of human GATA4 (GATA binding protein 4) and GATA5 (GATA binding protein 5). Exhibits DNA-binding transcription factor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific and RNA polymerase II regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Is involved in several processes, including defense response to other organism; endoderm development; and nematode larval development. Localizes to nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including AWC; Ealaa; Ealp; Earaa; and intestine. Human ortholog(s) of this gene are implicated in several diseases, including Down syndrome; congenital heart disease (multiple); and hypoparathyroidism-deafness-renal disease syndrome.
