OX NCBI_TaxID=8355; RN [1] RP NUCLEOTIDE SEQUENCE [MRNA], AND FUNCTION. RC TISSUE=Heart, and Intestine; RX PubMed=8631498; DOI=10.1006/dbio.1996.0071; RA Jiang Y., Evans T.; RT "The Xenopus GATA-4/5/6 genes are associated with cardiac RT specification and can regulate cardiac-specific transcription during RT embryogenesis."; RL Dev. Biol. 174:258-270(1996). CC -!- FUNCTION: Transcriptional activator that binds to the consensus CC sequence 5'-AGATAG-3'. Associated with cardiac specification and CC can regulate cardiac-specific transcription during embryogenesis. CC Activates the expression of cardiac MHC-alpha in vivo. CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:8631498}. CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Nucleus {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P43694}. CC -!- TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Expressed at high levels in heart, small CC intestine, stomach, ovary, and liver. Found at much lower levels CC in lung, spleen, pancreas and skin. CC -!- DEVELOPMENTAL STAGE: Expressed in cardiac progenitors during CC embryogenesis and up-regulated during gastrulation. CC -!- SIMILARITY: Contains 2 GATA-type zinc fingers. CC {ECO:0000255|PROSITE-ProRule:PRU00094}.
