POU5F1 Antibody / OCT4

SKU: orb1716299

Description

OCT4/POU5F1 is a member of the POU family of transcription factors, involved in the regulation of pluripotency during normal development and is detectable in embryonic stem and germ cells. It is a key regulator of self-renewal in embryonic stem cells; its expression is potentially correlated with tumorigenesis and can affect tumor recurrence or resistance to therapies. OCT4/POU5F1 is expressed in undifferentiated pluripotent cells, germ cells in ovary and testis.
