Target Information

Target Symbol OBTF4
UniProt ID Q01860
Function Transcription factor that binds to the octamer motif (5'-ATTTGCAT-3'). Forms a trimeric complex with SOX2 or SOX15 on DNA and controls the expression of a number of genes involved in embryonic development such as YES1, FGF4, UTF1 and ZFP206. Critical for early embryogenesis and for embryonic stem cell pluripotency.
Cellular Localization Cytoplasm. Nucleus. Expressed in a diffuse and slightly punctuate pattern. Colocalizes with MAPK8 and MAPK9 in the nucleus.
Development Stage Highly expressed in undifferentiated embryonic stem cells and expression decreases gradually after embryoid body (EB) formation.
Domain The POU-specific domain mediates interaction with PKM. The 9aaTAD motif is a transactivation domain present in a large number of yeast and animal transcription factors.
Post-transcriptional 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. ERK1/2-mediated phosphorylation at Ser-111 promotes nuclear exclusion and proteasomal degradation. Phosphorylation at Thr-235 and Ser-236 decrease DNA-binding and alters ability to activate transcription.
