PYGO2
pygopus family PHD finger 2

Predicted to enable several functions, including histone acetyltransferase regulator activity; histone binding activity; and zinc ion binding activity. Predicted to be involved in kidney development and spermatid nucleus differentiation. Predicted to act upstream of or within several processes, including canonical Wnt signaling pathway; lens development in camera-type eye; and regulation of mammary gland epithelial cell proliferation. Part of beta-catenin-TCF complex. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2025]

PYGO2 — as a Regulated Gene

TFs regulating PYGO2 0 TFs

Transcription factors with Perturb-seq knockdown data for PYGO2. 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 = PYGO2 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 PYGO2

Open chromatin peaks (ATAC-seq) in the genomic neighbourhood of PYGO2, 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.
