UniProtKB description: Transcriptional activator. Recognizes and binds to the DNA sequence 5'-TGT[GT][GT]ATT-3'. Upon TGF-beta induction, forms a transcriptionally active complex with smad2 and smad4 called activin-responsive factor 1 (ARF1), which binds a site on the mix-B/mix.2 promoter called the activin response element (ARE). Binds to activated smads and the ARE with much lower affinity than fast3. Necessary for the first steps in mesoderm specification, directly inducing mesodermal genes. Acts with fast3 to control the convergent extension movements of gastrulation. Binds to the proximal element (PE) of the gsc gene and cooperates with gtf2ird1/wbscr11 and SMAD proteins to regulate gsc transcription.
