OMA1
OMA1 zinc metallopeptidase | FLJ33782, MPRP-1, YKR087C, ZMPOMA1

Enables metalloendopeptidase activity. Involved in several processes, including HRI-mediated signaling; proteolysis; and regulation of mitochondrion organization. Located in mitochondrial inner membrane. Is active in mitochondrial intermembrane space. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

OMA1 — as a Regulated Gene

TFs regulating OMA1 0 TFs

Transcription factors with Perturb-seq knockdown data for OMA1. 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 = OMA1 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 OMA1

Open chromatin peaks (ATAC-seq) in the genomic neighbourhood of OMA1, 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.
