basic FUNCTION
| cytokine-inducible transcription factor with transformation activity, involved in the recruitement of p300/CBP by hypoxia-inducible factor HIF1A and MRG1 (MSG1-related gene) |
|
controlling left-right patterning and heart development through NODAL/PITX2 pathway |
|
coactivator of PPARA and that both proteins may participate in signaling cascades of hypoxic response and angiogenesis |
|
regulating colon cancer invasion and might be a target for HDAC inhibitor-based intervention of colon cancer |
|
interfering with the binding of transcription factors HIF-1a and STAT2 to p300/CBP |
|
involved in response to stress |
|
implicated in control of cell growth and malignant transformation |
|
important regulator of transforming growth factor (TGF)-beta signaling |
|
functioning as a Smad3/p300-interacting transcriptional co-activator in modulating the expression of MMP9, which could affect tumor cell invasion mediated by TGF-beta |
|
playing a role in adrenal growth and possibly in adrenal tumorigenesis |
|
non-DNA binding protein that functions as a context dependent transcriptional co-activator or repressor |
|
functions to ensure elevated NR5A1 and SRY levels which provide a robust activation of the male pathway as well as proper development |
|
critical upstream regulator of fracture healing |
|
may act as a mechanosensitive molecular switch regulating cartilage matrix breakdown |
|
role in tissues of the embryo vital for left–right patterning (the node and lateral plate mesoderm) |
|
role as a potentiator of bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) signalling, counteracting the initiation of NODAL expression in the lateral plate mesoderm |
|
cardiac transcription factor, plays an important role in cardiac development |
|
may play a role in the development of congenital heart disease (CHD) |
|
plays a role in left–right patterning through the NODAL-PITX2C pathway |
|
potential role of CITED2 in the remodeling of chromatin structures |
|
critical role of CITED2 in cardiomyocyte differentiation by affecting the expression of NFATC4 leading to down-regulation of NKX2.5 and beta-MHC cardiomyocyte genes |
|
functions as a molecular switch of cytokine-induced proliferation and quiescence |
|
functions as a transcriptional co-activator of ESR1 in breast cancer cells and its increased expression in tumors may result in estrogen-independent ER activation, thereby reducing estrogen dependence and response to anti-estrogen therapy |
|
is an essential regulator for HSC quiescence, apoptosis, and function |
|
is a transcriptional co-factor with important roles in many organs of the developing mammalian embryo |
|
its overexpression sustains ESC pluripotency |

protein
| coactivator of TFAP2 |
|
interacting directly with PPARA in the presence or absence of ligand predominantly via the ligand binding domain of the nuclear receptor |
|
binding to the CH1 region of p300/CBP |
|
interacts with WT1 to stimulate the expression of NR5A1 in the adrenogonadal primordium to ensure adrenal development |
|
role for transcription factor LMO4 in thymus development through genetic interaction with CITED2 |
|
may interact with both NODAL and BMP signalling in establishing laterality |
|
EP300 interacting transcriptional modulator that functions as an important modulator in cardiac development |
|
controls embryonic stem cells (ESCs) pluripotency and differentiation via direct regulation of POU5F1 gene expression. |
|
SPI1 is a critical regulator of CITED2, as SPI1 repressed CITED2 expression in a DNMT3A/B-dependent manner in normal CD34+ cells |

| Cited2-null mice die during gestation with fully penetrant heart defects and partially penetrant laterality defects | |
mice lacking Cited2 die in utero, and they show various cardiac malformations including atrial and ventricular septal defects |
|
loss of Cited2 in mice results in cardiac and aortic arch malformations, adrenal agenesis, neural tube and placental defects, and partially penetrant defects in left-right patterning |
|
embryonic growth retardation observed in Cited2 null embryos is likely due in part to a disorganized embryonic capillary network, and in part due to abnormalities of the nutrient transport functions of the feto-maternal interface |
