Target Information

Target Symbol POU5F1
Target Name POU domain, class 5, transcription factor 1
UniProt ID Q01860
Cellular Localization Nucleus. Expressed in a diffuse and slightly punctuate pattern.
Developmental Stage Highly expressed in undifferentiated embryonic stem cells and expression decreases gradually after embryoid body (EB) formation.
Function Transcription factor that binds to the octamer motif (5'-ATTTGCAT-3'). Forms a trimeric complex with SOX2 on DNA and controls the expression of a number of genes involved in embryonic development such as YES1, FGF4, UTF1 and ZFP26. Critical for early embryogenesis and for embryonic stem cell pluripotency.
Post-translational Modifications Sumoylation enhances the protein stability, DNA binding and transactivation activity. Sumoylation is required for enhanced YES1 expression. Ubiquitinated; undergoes 'Lys-63'-linked polyubiquitination by WWP2 leading to proteasomal degradation.
Domain The POU-specific domain mediates interaction with PKM2.
Sequence Similarities Belongs to the POU transcription factor family. Class-5 subfamily. Contains 1 homeobox DNA-binding domain. Contains 1 POU-specific domain.
