Enables sequence-specific double-stranded DNA binding activity. Predicted to be involved in negative regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II; positive regulation of gene expression; and positive regulation of transcription, DNA-templated. Predicted to act upstream of or within keratinocyte differentiation; nervous system development; and positive regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Located in nucleoplasm.
