SCRT2
scratch family transcriptional repressor 2 | ZNF898B

Enables sequence-specific double-stranded DNA binding activity. Predicted to be involved in negative regulation of extrinsic apoptotic signaling pathway via death domain receptors and negative regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Predicted to act upstream of or within regulation of neuron migration. Predicted to be located in chromatin. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

SCRT2 — as a Regulated Gene

TFs regulating SCRT2 0 TFs

Transcription factors with Perturb-seq knockdown data for SCRT2. 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 = SCRT2 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 SCRT2

Open chromatin peaks (ATAC-seq) in the genomic neighbourhood of SCRT2, 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.
