Entrez Gene summary for POU4F2 Gene:

The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the POU-domain transcription factor family and may be involved in

maintaining visual system neurons in the retina. The level of the encoded protein is also elevated in a majority

of breast cancers, resulting in accelerated tumor growth. (provided by RefSeq, Sep 2011)

GeneCards Summary for POU4F2 Gene:

POU4F2 (POU class 4 homeobox 2) is a protein-coding gene. Diseases associated with POU4F2 include differentiating neuroblastoma, and neuroblastoma. GO annotations related to this gene include chromatin binding and RNA polymerase II core promoter proximal region sequence-specific DNA binding. An important paralog of this gene is POU5F2.

UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot: PO4F2_HUMAN, Q12837

Function: Transcription factor. May play a role in determining or maintaining the identities of a small subset of

visual system neurons
