KCTD8
potassium channel tetramerization domain containing 8

Predicted to enable G protein-coupled neurotransmitter receptor activity involved in regulation of presynaptic membrane potential. Predicted to be involved in regulation of G protein-coupled receptor signaling pathway. Predicted to be located in cell projection and postsynaptic membrane. Predicted to be part of receptor complex. Predicted to be active in postsynapse and presynaptic active zone membrane. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

KCTD8 — as a Regulated Gene

TFs regulating KCTD8 0 TFs

Transcription factors with Perturb-seq knockdown data for KCTD8. 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 = KCTD8 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 KCTD8

Open chromatin peaks (ATAC-seq) in the genomic neighbourhood of KCTD8, 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.
