MACF1
microtubule actin crosslinking factor 1 | ABP620, ACF7, FLJ45612, FLJ46776, KIAA0465, KIAA1251, Lnc-PMIF, MACF, KIAA0754

This gene encodes a large protein containing numerous spectrin and leucine-rich repeat (LRR) domains. The encoded protein is a member of a family of proteins that form bridges between different cytoskeletal elements. This protein facilitates actin-microtubule interactions at the cell periphery and couples the microtubule network to cellular junctions. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants, but the full-length nature of some of these variants has not been determined. [provided by RefSeq, May 2013]

MACF1 — as a Regulated Gene

TFs regulating MACF1 0 TFs

Transcription factors with Perturb-seq knockdown data for MACF1. 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 = MACF1 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 MACF1

Open chromatin peaks (ATAC-seq) in the genomic neighbourhood of MACF1, 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.
