TEAD Family of Transcription Factors (TEAD)

Target
TEAD
Molecular classification
Transcription factor, DNA-binding protein
01

Overview

The TEAD (TEA domain) family of transcription factors, including TEAD1, TEAD2, TEAD3, and TEAD4, are key regulators of gene expression involved in development, cell proliferation, and organ size regulation. They bind to specific DNA motifs and interact with co-activators like YAP/TAZ to influence the expression of genes involved in these processes. Dysregulation of TEADs has been implicated in various cancers.
