Functional description Transcription factor that is involved in the regulation of cell proliferation, apoptosis and embryonic development (PubMed:12215533, PubMed:12668636, PubMed:12834866, PubMed:14628042, PubMed:14695375). Plays an important role in the development of several organs, including kidney, muscle and inner ear (PubMed:12668636, PubMed:12783782, PubMed:12834866, PubMed:14628042, PubMed:14695375). Depending on context, functions as transcriptional repressor or activator (PubMed:14628042). Lacks an activation domain, and requires interaction with EYA family members for transcription activation (By similarity). Mediates nuclear translocation of EYA1 and EYA2 (By similarity). Binds the 5'-TCA[AG][AG]TTNC-3' motif present in the MEF3 element in the MYOG promoter and CIDEA enhancer (By similarity). Regulates the expression of numerous genes, including MYC, CCNA1, CCND1 and EZR (PubMed:16488997). Acts as activator of the IGFBP5 promoter, probably coactivated by EYA2 (PubMed:11978764). Repression of precursor cell proliferation in myoblasts is switched to activation through recruitment of EYA3 to the SIX1-DACH1 complex (PubMed:14628042). During myogenesis, seems to act together with EYA2 and DACH2. Regulates the expression of CCNA1 (By similarity). Promotes brown adipocyte differentiation (PubMed:27923061).
