Transcriptional repressor that negatively regulates neuron differentiation by repressing retinoic acid-induced gene transcription (PubMed:19398580). Binds and interrupts RARA from binding to retinoic acid response elements (RARE) composed of tandem 5′-AGGTCA-3′ sites known as DR1-DR5 (PubMed:19398580). Recognizes and binds 2 copies of the core DNA sequence 5′-CCCCCA-3′ (PubMed:14621294).
