| 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. 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. May play a role in homeostasis and regeneration of bone, white adipose tissue and derm. Isoform 1: Transcriptional activator, when transfected in fibroblastic or myoblastic cell lines. This activity may be masked by the C-terminal OAR domain. Isoform 2: Transcriptional repressor, when transfected in fibroblastic or myoblastic cell lines. |
