POU6F1
Description
The POU6F1 (POU class 6 homeobox 1) is a protein-coding gene located on chromosome 12.
POU6F1 is a gene that encodes a protein involved in regulating gene expression. It plays a role in the development and function of various tissues and organs, including the brain, eyes, and pancreas.
POU6F1 is a transcription factor that binds to a specific DNA sequence called the octamer motif (5'-ATGATAAT-3'). This motif is slightly different from the typical octamer sequence, suggesting a unique binding specificity for POU6F1.
POU6F1 is also known as BRN5, MPOU, TCFB1.
