Binds to 5'-TGTCG[CT]GA[CT]A-3' DNA elents found in the promoter regions of a number of genes related to cell proliferation. Binds to the histone H1 promoter and stimulates transcription. Was first identified as gene weakly similar to Ac transposable elents, but does not code for any transposase activity.
