Ski Gene Summary [Mouse]
Enables chromatin binding activity; histone deacetylase inhibitor activity; and transcription corepressor activity. Involved in negative regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase III. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including camera-type eye development; negative regulation of transmembrane receptor protein serine/threonine kinase signaling pathway; and regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Located in cytoplasm and nucleus. Part of transcription repressor complex. Is expressed in cornea; embryo; eye; forelimb bud; and forelimb interdigital region. Orthologous to human SKI (SKI proto-oncogene). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]
