Summary: Enables DNA-binding transcription activator activity, RNA polymerase II-specific; protein domain specific binding activity; and sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Involved in several processes, including regulation of DNA-templated transcription; response to benzoic acid; and response to retinoic acid. Predicted to be located in several cellular components, including chromatin; mitochondrion; and nucleus. Predicted to be part of transcription repressor complex. Predicted to be active in nucleus. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in embryonal carcinoma and seminoma. Orthologous to human POU5F1 (POU class 5 homeobox 1) and POU5F1B (POU class 5 homeobox 1B).

Study shows that using a rat model of endometriosis, ectopic endometrium showed significantly higher Oct4 (POU5F1), and SSEA1, but similar Thy1 gene expression to that of control endometrium. This indicates increased transition from somatic to pluripotent cell states in ectopic endometrium which may play a role in endometriosis pathogenesis.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
