RCOR2 Transcription Factor
REST corepressor 2

Predicted to enable transcription corepressor activity. Predicted to be involved in negative regulation of DNA-templated transcription and regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Predicted to be located in nucleus. Predicted to be part of histone deacetylase complex and transcription regulator complex. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

Genes regulated by RCOR2

Genes likely regulated by RCOR2 through linked binding evidence in open chromatin. The chart ranks TF-linked genes by their mean Perturb-seq response to RCOR2 knockdown, with negative coefficients indicating downregulation and positive coefficients indicating upregulation upon knockdown.

Regulatory Elements bound by the TF

Open chromatin elements (ATAC-seq) where RCOR2 has ChIP-seq or motif footprint binding evidence and which are linked to at least one target gene region.

RCOR2 — as a Regulated Gene

TFs regulating RCOR2 0 TFs

Transcription factors with Perturb-seq knockdown data for RCOR2. 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 = RCOR2 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 RCOR2

Open chromatin peaks (ATAC-seq) in the genomic neighbourhood of RCOR2, 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.
