Related Product Information for anti-POU3F2 antibody

POU3F2 belongs to a large family of transcription factors that bind to the octameric DNA sequence ATGCAAAT. Most of these proteins share a highly homologous region, referred to as the POU domain, that occurs in several mammalian transcription factors, including the octamer-binding proteins Oct1 (POU2F1; MIM 164175) and Oct2 (POU2F2; MIM 164176) and the pituitary protein Pit1 (PIT1; MIM 173110). Class III POU genes are expressed predominantly in the central nervous system (CNS). It is likely that CNS-specific transcription factors such as these play an important role in mammalian neurogenesis by regulating their diverse patterns of gene expression (Schreiber et al., 1993 [PubMed 8441633]; Atanasoski et al., 1995 [PubMed 7601453]).

NCBI Description

This gene encodes a member of the POU-III class of neural transcription factors. The encoded protein is involved in neuronal differentiation and enhances the activation of corticotropin-releasing hormone regulated genes. Overexpression of this protein is associated with an increase in the proliferation of melanoma cells. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2012]

Uniprot Description

Oct7: Transcription factor that binds preferentially to the recognition sequence which consists of two distinct half-sites, ('GCAT') and ('TAAT'), separated by a nonconserved spacer region of 0, 2, or 3 nucleotides. Positively regulates the genes under the control of corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH) and CRH II promoters. Interacts with PQBP1. Expressed specifically in the neuroectodermal cell lineage. Belongs to the POU transcription factor family. Class- 3 subfamily. 3 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative initiation.
