Tle4 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Enables DNA-binding transcription factor binding activity; chromatin binding activity; and transcription corepressor activity. Involved in negative regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Acts upstream of or within Wnt signaling pathway and cellular response to leukemia inhibitory factor. Located in nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; embryo ectoderm; embryo mesenchyme; genitourinary system; and peripheral nervous system ganglion. Orthologous to human TLE4 (TLE family member 4, transcriptional corepressor). [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 Tle4 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
  • SP repeat domain
  • transcription regulator
  • WD40 repeats
  • transcription co-repressor
  • Groucho/TLE N-terminal Q-rich domain
  • WD domain, G-beta repeat
  • transcription factor binding
  • WD40
  • chromatin binding
  • protein binding
  • glutamine-rich domain
