ZNF8
zinc finger protein 8 | HF.18, Zfp128

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 negative regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Predicted to act upstream of or within BMP signaling pathway. Predicted to be active in nucleus.

ZNF8 — as a Regulated Gene

TFs regulating ZNF8 0 TFs

Transcription factors with Perturb-seq knockdown data for ZNF8. 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 = ZNF8 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 ZNF8

Open chromatin peaks (ATAC-seq) in the genomic neighbourhood of ZNF8, 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.
