Source: NCBI Gene (ID 5458)
Source: NCBI Gene (ID 5458)
Symbol: POU4F2
Full name: POU class 4 homeobox 2
Gene type: protein coding
RefSeq status: REVIEWED
Organism: Homo sapiens
Also known as: BRN3.2; BRN3B; Brn-3b
Summary: The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the POU-domain transcription factor family and may be involved in maintaining visual system neurons in the retina. The level of the encoded protein is also elevated in a majority of breast cancers, resulting in accelerated tumor growth. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2011]
