SCMH1 Transcription Factor
Scm polycomb group protein homolog 1 | Scml3

Predicted to enable chromatin binding activity and histone binding activity. Predicted to be involved in heterochromatin formation and negative regulation of DNA-templated transcription. Predicted to act upstream of or within anterior/posterior pattern specification; chromatin remodeling; and spermatogenesis. Predicted to be located in nucleoplasm. Predicted to be active in nucleus.

Genes regulated by SCMH1

Genes likely regulated by SCMH1 through linked binding evidence in open chromatin. The chart ranks TF-linked genes by their mean Perturb-seq response to SCMH1 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 SCMH1 has ChIP-seq or motif footprint binding evidence and which are linked to at least one target gene region.

SCMH1 — as a Regulated Gene

TFs regulating SCMH1 0 TFs

Transcription factors with Perturb-seq knockdown data for SCMH1. 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 = SCMH1 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 SCMH1

Open chromatin peaks (ATAC-seq) in the genomic neighbourhood of SCMH1, 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.
