Tead2 Gene Summary [Rat]
Predicted to enable several functions, including RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity; disordered domain specific binding activity; and transcription coactivator binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including hippo signaling; mesenchyme development; and positive regulation of DNA-templated transcription. Predicted to act upstream of or within several processes, including cellular response to retinoic acid; paraxial mesoderm development; and tube morphogenesis. Predicted to be located in cytosol and nucleoplasm. Predicted to be part of TEAD-YAP complex. Orthologous to human TEAD2 (TEA domain transcription factor 2).

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 rat Tead2 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
