ALOX12B
arachidonate 12-lipoxygenase, 12R type | 12R-LOX

This gene encodes an enzyme involved in the conversion of arachidonic acid to 12R-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid. Mutations in this gene are associated with nonbullous congenital ichthyosiform erythroderma. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2015]

ALOX12B — as a Regulated Gene

TFs regulating ALOX12B 0 TFs

Transcription factors with Perturb-seq knockdown data for ALOX12B. The Binding column indicates whether any binding evidence exists for this TF–gene pair (ChIP-seq or motif footprint peaks). The Mean coef is the average Perturb-seq regression coefficient across active gRNAs (positive = ALOX12B upregulated upon KD; negative = downregulated). The Outlier column indicates whether this gene is in the top or bottom 5% of all TF knockdown effects.

Elements linked to ALOX12B

Open chromatin peaks (ATAC-seq) in the genomic neighbourhood of ALOX12B, linked by TSS proximity or chromatin conformation (Multiome / HiCAR). Each element overlaps at least one TF ChIP-seq binding site — the TFs column shows how many distinct TFs bind that element.
