About POU3F2

Cytogenetic location: 6q16.1 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 6:98,834,574-98,839,458 (from NCBI)

This gene has 1 transcript (splice variant), 194 orthologues and 17 paralogues.

Summary

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]
