Enables

This protein enables 12 target(s):

Target	Category	Definition
RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding	molecular function	Binding to a specific upstream regulatory DNA sequence (transcription factor recognition sequence or binding site) located in cis relative to the transcription start site (i.e., on the same strand of DNA) of a gene transcribed by RNA polymerase II. [GOC:txnOH-2018]
DNA-binding transcription factor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific	molecular function	A DNA-binding transcription factor activity that modulates the transcription of specific gene sets transcribed by RNA polymerase II. [GOC:txnOH-2018]
TFIIB-class transcription factor binding	molecular function	Binding to a general RNA polymerase II transcription factor of the TFIIB class, one of the factors involved in formation of the preinitiation complex (PIC) by RNA polymerase II. [GOC:krc, PMID:16858867]
DNA-binding transcription activator activity, RNA polymerase II-specific	molecular function	A DNA-binding transcription factor activity that activates or increases transcription of specific gene sets transcribed by RNA polymerase II. [GOC:aruk, GOC:txnOH-2018, PMID:20737563, PMID:27145859]
DNA binding	molecular function	Any molecular function by which a gene product interacts selectively and non-covalently with DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid). [GOC:dph, GOC:jl, GOC:tb, GOC:vw]
DNA-binding transcription factor activity	molecular function	A transcription regulator activity that modulates transcription of gene sets via selective and non-covalent binding to a specific double-stranded genomic DNA sequence (sometimes referred to as a motif) within a cis-regulatory region. Regulatory regions include promoters (proximal and distal) and enhancers. Genes are transcriptional units, and include bacterial operons. [GOC:txnOH-2018]
protein binding	molecular function	Binding to a protein. [GOC:go_curators]
beta-catenin binding	molecular function	Binding to a catenin beta subunit. [GOC:bf]
identical protein binding	molecular function	Binding to an identical protein or proteins. [GOC:jl]
protein heterodimerization activity	molecular function	Binding to a nonidentical protein to form a heterodimer. [GOC:ai]
E-box binding	molecular function	Binding to an E-box, a DNA motif with the consensus sequence CANNTG that is found in the promoters of a wide array of genes expressed in neurons, muscle and other tissues. [GOC:BHF, GOC:vk, PMID:11812799]
sequence-specific double-stranded DNA binding	molecular function	Binding to double-stranded DNA of a specific nucleotide composition, e.g. GC-rich DNA binding, or with a specific sequence motif or type of DNA, e.g. promotor binding or rDNA binding. [GOC:dos, GOC:sl]

Located In

This protein is located in 1 target(s):

Target	Category	Definition
nucleus	cellular component	A membrane-bounded organelle of eukaryotic cells in which chromosomes are housed and replicated. In most cells, the nucleus contains all of the cell's chromosomes except the organellar chromosomes, and is the site of RNA synthesis and processing. In some species, or in specialized cell types, RNA metabolism or DNA replication may be absent. [GOC:go_curators]

Part Of

This protein is part of 4 target(s):

Target	Category	Definition
chromatin	cellular component	The ordered and organized complex of DNA, protein, and sometimes RNA, that forms the chromosome. [GOC:elh, PMID:20404130]
transcription regulator complex	cellular component	A protein complex that is capable of associating with DNA by direct binding, or via other DNA-binding proteins or complexes, and regulating transcription. [GOC:jl]
beta-catenin-TCF7L2 complex	cellular component	A protein complex that contains beta-catenin and TCF7L2 (TCF4), binds to the TCF DNA motif within a promoter element, and is involved in the regulation of WNT target gene transcription. [GOC:BHF, GOC:rl, PMID:9065401, PMID:9065402]
beta-catenin-TCF complex	cellular component	A protein complex that contains beta-catenin and a member of the T-cell factor (TCF)/lymphoid enhancer binding factor (LEF) family of transcription factors. [GOC:bf, GOC:PARL, PMID:11751639, PMID:16936075, PMID:20123964, PMID:21075118, PMID:9419974]

Involved In

This protein is involved in 7 target(s):

Target	Category	Definition
nervous system development	biological process	The process whose specific outcome is the progression of nervous tissue over time, from its formation to its mature state. [GOC:dgh]
cell differentiation	biological process	The cellular developmental process in which a relatively unspecialized cell, e.g. embryonic or regenerative cell, acquires specialized structural and/or functional features that characterize a specific cell. Differentiation includes the processes involved in commitment of a cell to a specific fate and its subsequent development to the mature state. [ISBN:0198506732]
positive regulation of neuron differentiation	biological process	Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of neuron differentiation. [GOC:go_curators]
positive regulation of DNA-templated transcription	biological process	Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of cellular DNA-templated transcription. [GOC:go_curators, GOC:txnOH]
positive regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II	biological process	Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of transcription from an RNA polymerase II promoter. [GOC:go_curators, GOC:txnOH]
protein-DNA complex assembly	biological process	The aggregation, arrangement and bonding together of proteins and DNA molecules to form a protein-DNA complex. [GOC:jl]
regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II	biological process	Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of transcription mediated by RNA polymerase II. [GOC:go_curators, GOC:txnOH]
