- Cell line: Breast cancer line (MDA-MB-231
- GEO Dataset: GSE66081

Visualization of ChIP peaks

Motif analysis

Experiment validation- Enrichment on known binding site

TEAD4 is enriched in promoter regions

Potential role of TEAD4 in MAPK signaling pathway
- MAPK signaling pathway transmit grown promoting signals
- Abnormalities in MAPK signaling pathway play a critical role in the development and progression of cancer
Potential role of TEAD4 in mediating Ras expression
