Other Information

**Key characteristics:** * It is a protein of the POU class 4 family of transcription factors. * It is expressed in high levels in neurons, endothelial cells, and stem cells. * It is a key regulator of gene expression in these cells. * It has been shown to play a role in neuron migration, cell cycle regulation, and tumor growth. **Pathways and functions:** * POU4F1 is a key regulator of gene expression in neurons. * It is expressed in high levels in neurons and is required for the expression of genes involved in neuron migration, growth, and differentiation. * It is also required for the regulation of cell cycle progression and apoptosis. * In endothelial cells, POU4F1 is essential for the formation of new blood vessels and the maintenance of vascular integrity. * In stem cells, POU4F1 is required for the maintenance of stem cell identity and for the differentiation of stem cells into other cell types. **Clinical significance:** * Mutations in POU4F1 have been linked to a number of human diseases, including autism, schizophrenia, and cancer. * In some cases, POU4F1 mutations can lead to the loss of neural function. * Therefore, POU4F1 is a promising target for the treatment of neurological disorders. **Additional notes:** * POU4F1 is a highly conserved protein, with a similar protein found in other vertebrates. * It is a well-known target for cancer immunotherapy, and several drugs that target POU4F1 are currently in clinical development.
