TUT4
terminal uridylyl transferase 4 | KIAA0191, PAPD3, TENT3A, ZCCHC11

Enables RNA uridylyltransferase activity. Involved in RNA metabolic process; stem cell population maintenance; and transposable element silencing by mRNA destabilization. Located in cytoplasmic ribonucleoprotein granule; cytosol; and nucleolus. Implicated in liver benign neoplasm. Biomarker of breast cancer. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

TUT4 — as a Regulated Gene

TFs regulating TUT4 0 TFs

Transcription factors with Perturb-seq knockdown data for TUT4. 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 = TUT4 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 TUT4

Open chromatin peaks (ATAC-seq) in the genomic neighbourhood of TUT4, 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.
