Summary

POU6F2 (POU class 6 homeobox 2, HGNC:21694) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 7p14.1, encoding POU domain, class 6, transcription factor 2 (P78424). Probable transcription factor likely to be involved in early steps in the differentiation of amacrine and ganglion cells.

This gene encodes a member of the POU protein family characterized by the presence of a bipartite DNA binding domain, consisting of a POU-specific domain and a homeodomain, separated by a variable polylinker. The DNA binding domain may bind to DNA as monomers or as homo- and/or heterodimers, in a sequence-specific manner. The POU family members are transcriptional regulators, many of which are known to control cell type-specific differentiation pathways. This gene is a tumor suppressor involved in Wilms tumor (WT) predisposition. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been found for this gene.

Literature-anchored findings (GeneRIF, showing 6)

  • observations suggest that POU6F2 is a tumor suppressor and is involved in hereditary predisposition to Wilms tumor (PMID:15459955)
  • Retina-derived POU domain factor 1 coordinates expression of genes relevant to renal and neuronal development (PMID:27425396)
  • We further discovered that the expression of transcription factor POU class 6 homeobox 2 (POU6F2) is restricted to Corneal endothelial cells (CECs) , and upregulated during human CEC differentiation, suggesting that POU6F2 is pivotal to terminal differentiation of CECs (PMID:29113774)
  • Genomic loci were examined in the NEIGHBORHOOD database to determine if they are potential risk factors for human glaucoma identified using meta-data from human GWAS. The top 50 hits all resided within one gene (POU6F2), with the highest significance level of p = 10-6 for SNP rs76319873. POU6F2 is found in retinal ganglion cells and in corneal limbal stem cells. (PMID:29370175)
  • Whole-genome sequencing identified two novel somatic mutations in the POU6F2 gene (c. 839 C>T; c. 875A>G) in patients with prolactinoma. The mutations obviously decreased the expression level of POU6F2. Inhibition its activity increased the cell proliferation and PRL secretion in pituitary tumor cell line, but proliferation and PRL secretion were decreased in cells with POU6F2 overexpression.
