POU domain class 2-associating factor 1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the POU2AF1 gene. [5] [6] The protein is also termed Oct coactivator from B cells (i.e. OCAB), Oct binding factor 1 (OBF1 or OBF-1), and, as commonly found in the literature, BOB1. [7] BOB1 is a transcriptional coactivator (i.e. a protein that controls the activity of transcription factors) which is expressed principally by B-cell lymphocytes and controls immunoglobulin and other genes critical for these cells expression of CD20, CRISP-3, and CD36. [8] The expression of BOB1 has proven useful for identifying certain lymphomas as being B-cell lymphomas, [9] as exemplified in studies which use BOB1 expression to help identify lymphomas as being diffuse large B-cell lymphomas, not otherwise specified. [10]
POU2AF1 has been shown to interact with:
Oct-4, also known as POU5F1, is a protein that in humans is encoded by the POU5F1 gene. Oct-4 is a homeodomain transcription factor of the POU family. It is critically involved in the self-renewal of undifferentiated embryonic stem cells. As such, it is frequently used as a marker for undifferentiated cells. Oct-4 expression must be closely regulated; too much or too little will cause differentiation of the cells.
POU class 1 homeobox 1, also known as pituitary-specific positive transcription factor 1 (PIT1), POU domain, class 1, transcription factor 1 (POU1F1) and growth hormone factor 1 (GHF1), is a transcription factor for growth hormone encoded by the gene POU1F1.
Octamer transcription factors are a family of transcription factors which binds to the "ATTTGCAT" DNA sequence. Their DNA-binding domain is a POU domain.
CIITA is a human gene which encodes a protein called the class II, major histocompatibility complex, transactivator. Mutations in this gene are responsible for the bare lymphocyte syndrome in which the immune system is severely compromised and cannot effectively fight infection. Chromosomal rearrangement of CIITA is involved in the pathogenesis of Hodgkin lymphoma and primary mediastinal B cell lymphoma.
Signal transducer and activator of transcription 6 (STAT6) is a transcription factor that belongs to the Signal Transducer and Activator of Transcription (STAT) family of proteins. The proteins of STAT family transmit signals from a receptor complex to the nucleus and activate gene expression. Similarly as other STAT family proteins, STAT6 is also activated by growth factors and cytokines. STAT6 is mainly activated by cytokines interleukin-4 and interleukin-13.
Forkhead box protein P1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the FOXP1 gene. FOXP1 is necessary for the proper development of the brain, heart, and lung in mammals. It is a member of the large FOX family of transcription factors.
TEAD2, together with TEAD1, defines a novel family of transcription factors, the TEAD family, highly conserved through evolution. TEAD proteins were notably found in Drosophila (Scalloped), C. elegans, S. cerevisiae and A. nidulans. TEAD2 has been less studied than TEAD1 but a few studies revealed its role during development.
POU domain, class 2, transcription factor 1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the POU2F1 gene.
Four and a half LIM domains protein 2 also known as FHL-2 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the FHL2 gene. LIM proteins contain a highly conserved double zinc finger motif called the LIM domain.
Non-POU domain-containing octamer-binding protein (NonO) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the NONO gene.
Histone-lysine N-methyltransferase 2A, also known as acute lymphoblastic leukemia 1 (ALL-1), myeloid/lymphoid or mixed-lineage leukemia1 (MLL1), or zinc finger protein HRX (HRX), is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the KMT2A gene.
POU is a family of eukaryotic transcription factors that have well-conserved homeodomains. The Pou domain is a bipartite DNA binding domain found in these proteins.
Paired box protein Pax-5 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the PAX5 gene.
Solute carrier family 22 member 1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the gene SLC22A1.
POU domain, class 3, transcription factor 2 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the POU3F2 gene.
POU domain, class 4, transcription factor 1 (POU4F1) also known as brain-specific homeobox/POU domain protein 3A (BRN3A), homeobox/POU domain protein RDC-1 or Oct-T1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the POU4F1 gene.
Zinc finger protein Aiolos also known as Ikaros family zinc finger protein 3 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the IKZF3 gene.
POU domain, class 4, transcription factor 2 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the POU4F2 gene.
POU domain, class 3, transcription factor 1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the POU3F1 gene.
Transcription factor SOX-11 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the SOX11 gene.
