    basic FUNCTION
  • possible trancriptional regulator of immunodeficiency virus type 1
  • recognizing several distinct binding motifs by virtue of employing different regions, thus being able to interact with and regulate many cellular partners
  • playing an important role in the regulation of erythroid genes
  • exhibiting some tissue- or stage-specific activation toward certain genes such as globin in red blood cells and interleukin-4 in T helper cells
  • critical regulator of erythroid gene expression
  • role in fibronectin expression
  • CELLULAR PROCESS nucleotide, transcription, regulation
    PHYSIOLOGICAL PROCESS
    PATHWAY
    metabolism
    signaling
    a component
  • dimerizing with NFE2 to form the stage selector protein complex
  • heterodimerization with UBP1 is necessary for nuclear localization
  • INTERACTION
    DNA
    RNA
    small molecule
    protein
  • GSKB, APBB1 (FE65) and others involved in the inflammatory response
  • two HXPR motif-containing proteins REST and YY1 were able to bind TFCP2
  • interacting with RNF2 and PHB2 (RNF2 and PHB2 modulate the TFCP2-mediated transcriptional pathway)
  • TFCP2 is an essential transcription factor for SRY expression regulation
  • cell & other
