A synthesized peptide derived from human CRX Binds and transactivates the sequence 5-TAATC[CA]-3 which is found upstream of several photoreceptor-specific genes, including the opsin genes. Acts synergistically with other transcription factors, e.g. NRL and RX, to regulate photoreceptor cell-specific gene transcription. Essential for the maintenance of mammalian photoreceptors.
