This gene encodes a nuclear protein that belongs to a novel family of proteins required for vertebrate somitogenesis. Members of this family have a tetrapeptide WRPW motif that is required for interaction with the transcriptional repressor Groucho and a carboxy-terminal Ripply homology domain/Bowline-DSCR-Ledgerline conserved region required for transcriptional repression. Null mutant mice die soon after birth and display defects in axial skeleton segmentation due to defective somitogenesis. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

Transcription factors with Perturb-seq knockdown data for RIPPLY2. 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 = RIPPLY2 upregulated upon KD; negative = downregulated). The Outlier column indicates whether this gene is in the top or bottom 5% of all TF knockdown effects.
| TF | Mean coef | Binding | Outlier | TF→Gene link |

Open chromatin peaks (ATAC-seq) in the genomic neighbourhood of RIPPLY2, 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.
| Accessibility | Element | Dist. to TSS | Link type | TFs |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| chr6:83,852,941–83,854,471 | at TSS | At TSS | 497 | |
| chr6:83,859,075–83,860,410 | 5.5 kb | Proximal (<10kb) | 1062 |
