Function | Master transcription factor of stromal fibroblasts for myofibroblastic lineage progression. Orchestrates the functional drift of fibroblasts into myofibroblastic phenotype via TGF-beta signaling by remodeling a super-enhancer landscape. Through this function, plays an essential role in wound healing process (PubMed:35589735). Acts as a transcriptional regulator of muscle creatine kinase (MCK) and so has a role in the establishment of diverse mesodermal muscle types. The protein binds to an A/T-rich element in the muscle creatine enhancer (By similarity). May play a role in homeostasis and regeneration of bone, white adipose tissue and derm (By similarity). |
Cellular Location | Nucleus {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P63013}. |
Tissue Location | [Isoform 1]: Widely expressed in embryonic and adult tissues, with highest levels in skeletal muscle. Isoform 1 is either expressed at similar or higher levels compared to isoform 2 in all embryonic tissues but skeletal muscle and heart. In adult tissues, expressed at lower levels compared to isoform 2 |
