CLASP2
cytoplasmic linker associated protein 2 | KIAA0627

Enables cytoskeletal protein binding activity; dystroglycan binding activity; and protein tyrosine kinase binding activity. Involved in several processes, including cytoskeleton organization; positive regulation of extracellular matrix organization; and regulation of supramolecular fiber organization. Located in several cellular components, including basal cortex; focal adhesion; and microtubule cytoskeleton. Is active in glutamatergic synapse. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2025]

CLASP2 — as a Regulated Gene

TFs regulating CLASP2 0 TFs

Transcription factors with Perturb-seq knockdown data for CLASP2. 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 = CLASP2 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 CLASP2

Open chromatin peaks (ATAC-seq) in the genomic neighbourhood of CLASP2, 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.
