MAPK15
mitogen-activated protein kinase 15 | ERK7, ERK8

Enables MAP kinase activity and chromatin binding activity. Involved in several processes, including dopamine uptake; protein localization to ciliary transition zone; and regulation of organelle organization. Located in several cellular components, including Golgi apparatus; autophagosome; and microtubule organizing center. Biomarker of breast cancer. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2025]

MAPK15 — as a Regulated Gene

TFs regulating MAPK15 0 TFs

Transcription factors with Perturb-seq knockdown data for MAPK15. 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 = MAPK15 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 MAPK15

Open chromatin peaks (ATAC-seq) in the genomic neighbourhood of MAPK15, 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.
