DCAF1
DDB1 and CUL4 associated factor 1 | KIAA0800, MGC102804, VPRBP

Enables histone H2AT120 kinase activity; nuclear estrogen receptor binding activity; and ubiquitin-like ligase-substrate adaptor activity. Involved in several processes, including cell competition in a multicellular organism; proteasome-mediated ubiquitin-dependent protein catabolic process; and regulation of primary metabolic process. Located in COP9 signalosome; fibrillar center; and nucleoplasm. Part of Cul4-RING E3 ubiquitin ligase complex. Is active in centrosome. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

DCAF1 — as a Regulated Gene

TFs regulating DCAF1 0 TFs

Transcription factors with Perturb-seq knockdown data for DCAF1. 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 = DCAF1 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 DCAF1

Open chromatin peaks (ATAC-seq) in the genomic neighbourhood of DCAF1, 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.
