About This Section Entrez Gene summary for TFAP2A : The protein encoded by this gene is a transcription factor that binds the consensus sequence 5'-GCCNNNGGC-3'. The encoded protein functions as either a homodimer or as a heterodimer with similar family members. This protein activates the transcription of some genes while inhibiting the transcription of others. Defects in this gene are a cause of branchiooculofacial syndrome (BOFS). Three transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.(provided by RefSeq, Dec 2009) UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot: AP2A_HUMAN, P05549 Function : Sequence-specific DNA-binding protein that interacts with inducible viral and cellular enhancer elements toregulate transcription of selected genes. AP-2 factors bind to the consensus sequence 5'-GCCNNNGGC-3' and activate genes involved in a large spectrum of important biological functions including proper eye, face, body wall, limb and neural tube development. They also suppress a number of genes including MCAM/MUC18, C/EBP alpha and MYC. AP-2-alpha is the only AP-2 protein required for early morphogenesis of the lens vesicle. Together with the CITED2 coactivator, stimulates the PITX2 P1 promoter transcription activation. Associates with chromatin to the PITX2 P1 promoter region Gene Wiki entry for TFAP2A

About This Section UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot: AP2A_HUMAN, P05549 (See
protein sequence )Recommended Name: Transcription factor AP-2-alpha Size : 437 amino acids; 48062 Da
Subunit : Binds DNA as a dimer. Can form homodimers or heterodimers with other AP-2 family members. Interacts with WWOX.Interacts with CITED4. Interacts with UBE2I. Interacts with RALBP1 in a complex also containing EPN1 and NUMB during interphase and mitosis. Interacts with KCTD1; this interaction represses transcription activation. Interacts (via C-terminus) with CITED2 (via C-terminus); the interaction stimulates TFAP2A-transcriptional activation. Interacts (via N-terminus) with EP300 (via N-terminus); the interaction requires CITED2

TFAP2A for disorders About GeneDecksing OMIM gene information: 107580 OMIM disorders : 113620 UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot: AP2A_HUMAN, P05549
Defects in TFAP2A are the cause of branchiooculofacial syndrome (BOFS) [MIM:113620]; also known as branchial clefts with characteristic facies, growth retardation, imperforate nasolacrimal duct, and premature aging or lip pseudocleft-hemangiomatous branchial cyst syndrome. BOFS is a rare autosomal dominant cleft palate craniofacial disorder with variable expressivity. The major features include cutaneous anomalies, ocular anomalies, characteristic facial appearance (malformed pinnae, oral clefts), and, less commonly, renal and ectodermal (dental and hair) anomalies 20/87 diseases for TFAP2A (see all 87 ): About MalaCards branchiooculofacial syndrome acyl-coa dehydrogenase ectopic thymus non-small cell lung carcinoma adenomatous polyposis coli dominant cleft palate hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia nonalcoholic steatohepatitis clear cell renal cell carcinoma cleft palate soft tissue sarcoma spina bifida insulin resistance cutaneous malignant melanoma exencephaly oral squamous cell carcinoma enophthalmos cleft lip renal cell carcinoma cystic fibrosis 4 diseases from the University of Copenhagen DISEASES database for TFAP2A :Branchiooculofacial syndrome Ectopic thymus Enophthalmos Cleft lip 10/65 Novoseek disease relationships for TFAP2A gene (see all 65 ) About this table
