Important Note:
By default, qPCR primer pairs are designed to measure the expression level of the splice variant (accession number) you selected for this gene WITHOUT consideration of other possible variants of this gene. If this gene has multiple variants, and you would like to measure the expression levels of one particular variant, multiple variants, or all variants, please contact us for a custom service project at inquiry@genecopoeia.com.

- POU5F1 (OCT3/4) identifies cells with pluripotent potential in human germ cell tumors.
- FGF4 is upregulated by the OCT3 transcription factor in breast cancer cells.
- Oct4 can dimerize onto DNA in a distinct conformational arrangement.
- Normal pattern of expression is disturbed in dysgenetic gonads, especially in rare intersex cases, thus increasing risk of malignant transformation. High abundance of OCT-3/4 in carcinoma in situ is consistent with early fetal origin and pluripotency.
- Oct4 is required to maintain the undifferentiated stem cell state, and differentiation to trophectoderm occurs in its absence.
- expression of Oct-4 indicates a pluripotent phenotype of CD133(+) cells and appears to be of functional relevance

- Oct-4-mediated transactivation is stimulated by EWS
- The hOct4 promoter upstream region contains multiple regulatory elements, one of which, the GC box, may be an important cis-regulatory element that regulates the transcription of the hOct4 promoter by the binding of Sp family transcription factors.
- The Oct4 protein co-occupy a substantial portion of its target genes, and collaborate to form regulatory circuitry consisting of autoregulatory and feedforward loops.
- results suggest that pseudogenes Oct4-pg5 and Oct4-pg1 may be involved in the regulation of Oct4 gene activity thus might be pertinent to carcinogenesis
- Expression of POU5F1 isoform A and POU5F1_isoform B was examined in hESCs and all stages of human preimplantation development to look for differences in expression, biological activity, and relation to totipotency.

- Our results suggest that an immunohistochemical panel consisting of TTF-1, CEA, CA-125, and OCT-4 is helpful in distinguishing most pulmonary and ovarian carcinomas with clear cell features.
- RNAi-mediated silencing of OCT4 induced differentiation with mesodermal characteristics in EC cells
- sumoylation of Oct4 results in increased stability, DNA binding, and transactivation and provides an important mechanism to regulate Oct4 activity
- Differential methylation of the OCT3/4 upstream region is associated with primary testicular germ cell tumors
- In pluripotent human embryonic stem cells (unlike differentiated hES) Oct4 genes were located on greatly extended chromatin loops, outside their respective chromosome sites, suggesting role in pluripotency of hES.
