CCAR2
cell cycle and apoptosis regulator 2 | DBC-1, DBC1, NET35, KIAA1967

Enables RNA polymerase II complex binding activity and enzyme inhibitor activity. Involved in several processes, including mitochondrial fragmentation involved in apoptotic process; regulation of primary metabolic process; and regulation of signal transduction. Located in several cellular components, including mitochondrial matrix; nucleoplasm; and spindle. Part of DBIRD complex. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

CCAR2 — as a Regulated Gene

TFs regulating CCAR2 0 TFs

Transcription factors with Perturb-seq knockdown data for CCAR2. 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 = CCAR2 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 CCAR2

Open chromatin peaks (ATAC-seq) in the genomic neighbourhood of CCAR2, 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.
