HSPA4
heat shock protein family A (Hsp70) member 4 | HS24/P52, HSPH2

Predicted to enable adenyl-nucleotide exchange factor activity. Involved in chaperone-mediated protein complex assembly and protein insertion into mitochondrial outer membrane. Located in cytosol and extracellular exosome. Implicated in Chagas disease. Biomarker of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease; rheumatoid arthritis; type 2 diabetes mellitus; and ulcerative colitis.

HSPA4 — as a Regulated Gene

TFs regulating HSPA4 0 TFs

Transcription factors with Perturb-seq knockdown data for HSPA4. 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 = HSPA4 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 HSPA4

Open chromatin peaks (ATAC-seq) in the genomic neighbourhood of HSPA4, 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.
