Probable transcription factor that plays a role in configuring the spinal circuits controlling stride in vertebrates. Involved in neuronal specification within specific subdivision of spinal cord neurons and in the development of a coordinated locomotor network controlling limb movements. May regulate transcription during sexual development (By similarity). May homodimerize. Expressed in testis. Expressed in 4 to 5 weeks embryos. DMA domain interacts with ubiquitin. DMRT3 is a marker for a subset of spinal cord neurons (dI6). Belongs to the DMRT family. A gait on the wildside - Issue 154 of November 2013
