Function | Transcription factor that is necessary for placental development (PubMed:8962155). Involved in the control of expression of placental growth factor (PGF) and other placenta-specific genes. Binds to the trophoblast-specific element 2 (TSE2) of the aromatase gene enhancer. Binds to the SYDE1 promoter. Has a central role in mediating the differentiation of trophoblast cells along both the villous and extravillous pathways in placental development (By similarity). |

Background
GCM1 is a DNA-binding protein with a gcm-motif (glial cell missing motif). This protein is a homolog of the Drosophila glial cells missing gene (gcm). It binds to the GCM-motif (A/G)CCCGCAT, a novel sequence among known targets of DNA-binding proteins. The N-terminal DNA-binding domain confers the unique DNA-binding activity of this protein.
