E2f7 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Enables DNA-binding transcription repressor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific and RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Involved in several processes, including hepatocyte differentiation; regulation of cell cycle process; and trophoblast giant cell differentiation. Acts upstream of or within negative regulation of cell population proliferation and regulation of DNA-templated transcription. Located in nucleus. Is expressed in brain; embryo mesenchyme; and genitourinary system. Orthologous to human E2F7 (E2F transcription factor 7). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

Protein Domains

A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in mouse E2f7 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
