Am. Soc. Nephrol. 19:891-903(2008). CC -!- FUNCTION: Transcription factor that plays an important role in the CC development of several organs, including kidney, skull and stomach. CC During kidney development, maintains cap mesenchyme multipotent nephron CC progenitor cells in an undifferentiated state by opposing the inductive CC signals emanating from the ureteric bud and cooperates with WNT9B to CC promote renewing progenitor cells proliferation. Acts through its CC interaction with TCF7L2 and OSR1 in a canonical Wnt signaling CC independent manner preventing transcription of differentiation genes in CC cap mesenchyme such as WNT4. Also acts independently of OSR1 to CC activate expression of many cap mesenchyme genes, including itself, CC GDNF and OSR1. During craniofacial development plays a role in growth CC and elongation of the cranial base through regulation of chondrocyte CC differentiation. During stomach organogenesis, controls pyloric CC sphincter formation and mucosal growth through regulation of a gene CC network including NKX2-5, BMPR1B, BMP4, SOX9 and GREM1. During CC branchial arch development, acts to mediate HOXA2 control over the CC insulin-like growth factor pathway. May also be involved in limb tendon CC and ligament development (By similarity). Plays a role in cell CC proliferation and migration. {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q62232, CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:22995329}. CC -!- SUBUNIT: Interacts with TCF7L2; in a canonical Wnt signaling CC independent manner; prevents transcription of differentiation genes in CC cap mesenchyme. Interacts with OSR1; form a strong repressor complex CC with TCF7L2, TLE2 and TLE3 to prevent the activation of Wnt/beta- CC catenin target genes in the cap mesenchyme. Interacts with HOXA11, EYA1 CC and EYA3. {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q62232}. CC -!- INTERACTION: CC Q9NPC8; Q8N3C7: CLIP4; NbExp=3; IntAct=EBI-12695166, EBI-5655540; CC Q9NPC8; Q04206-1: RELA; NbExp=2; IntAct=EBI-12695166, EBI-10826776; CC Q9NPC8; Q04726-4: TLE3; NbExp=3; IntAct=EBI-12695166, EBI-12014388; CC Q9NPC8; Q08117-2: TLE5; NbExp=3; IntAct=EBI-12695166, EBI-11741437; CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Nucleus {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q62232}. CC -!- TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Strongly expressed in skeletal muscle. Expressed in CC Wilms' tumor and in the cap mesenchyme of fetal kidney (at protein CC level). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:22703800}. CC -!- DEVELOPMENTAL STAGE: Found at 48 dpc in the anterior cranial base with CC detection concentrated in the sphenoid precursor. Expression is also CC detected in the pituitary gland. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:20515681}. CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the SIX/Sine oculis homeobox family. CC {ECO:0000305}.
