TCF7L1 transcription factor 7 like 1

Gene ID: 83439, updated on 11-Apr-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: TCF3; TCF-3

Summary

This gene encodes a member of the T cell factor/lymphoid enhancer factor family of transcription factors. These transcription factors are activated by beta catenin, mediate the Wnt signaling pathway and are antagonized by the transforming growth factor beta signaling pathway. The encoded protein contains a high mobility group-box DNA binding domain and participates in the regulation of cell cycle genes and cellular senescence. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2010]
