MTERF4
mitochondrial transcription termination factor 4 | MGC61716, MTERFD2

Enables rRNA binding activity. Predicted to be involved in mitochondrial ribosome assembly and mitochondrial transcription. Predicted to act upstream of or within several processes, including camera-type eye development; protein targeting to mitochondrion; and ribosome assembly. Located in cytosol and mitochondrion. Part of mitochondrial large ribosomal subunit. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

MTERF4 — as a Regulated Gene

TFs regulating MTERF4 0 TFs

Transcription factors with Perturb-seq knockdown data for MTERF4. 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 = MTERF4 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 MTERF4

Open chromatin peaks (ATAC-seq) in the genomic neighbourhood of MTERF4, 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.
