OLIG1
oligodendrocyte transcription factor 1 | BHLHB6, bHLHe21

Predicted to enable DNA-binding transcription factor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific and E-box binding activity. Predicted to be involved in axon development; positive regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II; and sensory organ development. Predicted to act upstream of or within neuron fate commitment. Predicted to be located in chromatin. Predicted to be active in nucleus. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

OLIG1 — as a Regulated Gene

TFs regulating OLIG1 0 TFs

Transcription factors with Perturb-seq knockdown data for OLIG1. 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 = OLIG1 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 OLIG1

Open chromatin peaks (ATAC-seq) in the genomic neighbourhood of OLIG1, 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.
