HLX
H2.0 like homeobox | HB24, HLX1

Enables sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Predicted to be involved in signal transduction. Predicted to act upstream of or within several processes, including embryonic digestive tract morphogenesis; enteric nervous system development; and regulation of T-helper cell differentiation. Predicted to be located in chromatin. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

HLX — as a Regulated Gene

TFs regulating HLX 0 TFs

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

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