HLH-3

WormBase ID: WBGene00001950

WormBase description: Is an ortholog of human ASCL1 (achaete-scute family bHLH transcription factor 1). Exhibits protein heterodimerization activity and sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Contributes to RNA polymerase II regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Is involved in several processes, including generation of neurons; regulation of oviposition; and transcription by RNA polymerase II. Localizes to RNA polymerase II transcription factor complex. Is expressed in several structures, including AB lineage cell; ABplapppapp; ABplpapaaa; nerve ring; and neurons.
