ZNF251
zinc finger protein 251

Predicted to enable DNA-binding transcription factor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific and RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Predicted to be involved in regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Predicted to act upstream of or within hematopoietic stem cell homeostasis. Predicted to be active in nucleus.

ZNF251 — as a Regulated Gene

TFs regulating ZNF251 0 TFs

Transcription factors with Perturb-seq knockdown data for ZNF251. 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 = ZNF251 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 ZNF251

Open chromatin peaks (ATAC-seq) in the genomic neighbourhood of ZNF251, 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.
