PGF
placental growth factor | D12S1900, PIGF, PLGF, PlGF, PlGF-2, SHGC-10760, PGFL

Enables growth factor activity. Involved in positive regulation of cell population proliferation. Predicted to be located in extracellular region. Predicted to be active in extracellular space. Implicated in several diseases, including brain ischemia; diabetic neuropathy; glioblastoma; myocardial infarction; and pancreatic endocrine carcinoma. Biomarker of several diseases, including artery disease (multiple); autoimmune disease of musculoskeletal system (multiple); epilepsy (multiple); limited scleroderma; and pancreatic endocrine carcinoma.

PGF — as a Regulated Gene

TFs regulating PGF 0 TFs

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

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