Gene Information

human ... POU2F3(25833)

General description

POU2F3, also known as Skn-1a and OCT11, gene is mapped to human chromosome 11q23.3. The gene codes for a keratinocyte-specific POU transcription factor. The protein is expressed in stratified squamous epithelia, including the epidermis, cervix and foreskin.

Immunogen

Synthetic peptide directed towards the N terminal region of human POU2F3

Application

Rabbit Anti-POU2F3 antibody can be used for western blotting applications at a concentration of 0.5μg/ml. It can also be used for IHC assays at 4-8μg/ml, using paraffin-embedded tissues.

Biochem/physiol Actions

POU2F3 is a transcription factor that is involved in the growth and differentiation of keratinocytes. Studies have reported that Pou2f3 (Skn-1a) is involved in the differentiation of chemosensory cells. Furthermore, this transcription factor is also required for specifying the lineage of taste receptor cells.

Sequence

Synthetic peptide located within the following region: KMSGDVADSTDARSTLSQVEPGNDRKGLDFNRQIKTEDLSDSLQQTLSHR

Physical form

Purified antibody supplied in 1x PBS buffer with 0.09% (w/v) sodium azide and 2% sucrose.

Solitary chemosensory cells in the non-neuronal epithelium of the anterior nasal cavity have bitter taste cell-like molecular characteristics and are involved in the detection of noxious substances. Here, we demonstrate that Pou2f3/Skn-1a, which is necessary for generation of sweet, umami

Functional diversification of taste cells is crucial for proper discrimination of taste qualities. We found the homeodomain protein Skn-1a (Pou2f3) to be expressed in sweet, umami and bitter taste cells. Skn-1a-deficient mice lacked electrophysiological and behavioral responses to sweet, umami

POU2F3 (OCT11, Skn-1a) is a keratinocyte-specific POU transcription factor whose expression is tied to squamous epithelial stratification. It is also a candidate tumor suppressor gene in cervical cancer (CC) because it lies in a critical loss of heterozygosity region on
