Purpose
- Untagged full-length cDNA clone from Human POU5F1/OCT4 is ideal for over-expression of native protein for functional studies.
-
Characteristics
-
- These cDNA clones are isolated from full-length cDNA libraries and usually contain the coding sequence as well as the untranslated regions (UTRs) of the mRNA transcript appropriate to the library from which they were isolated.
- These cDNA clones are ideal for over-expression of native proteins for functional studies. Provided as 10 μg transfection-ready plasmids.
- Every lot of primer is tested to provide clean sequencing of cDNA clones.
-
Purification
- The DNAs were purified using PowerPrep HP Plasmid isolation kits for transfection ready plasmids.
-
Components

Background
- This gene encodes a transcription factor containing a POU homeodomain that plays a key role in embryonic development and stem cell pluripotency. Aberrant expression of this gene in adult tissues is associated with tumorigenesis. This gene can participate in a translocation with the Ewing's sarcoma gene on chromosome 21, which also leads to tumor formation. Alternative splicing, as well as usage of alternative AUG and non-AUG translation initiation codons, results in multiple isoforms. One of the AUG start codons is polymorphic in human populations. Related pseudogenes have been identified on chromosomes 1, 3, 8, 10, and 12. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2013].Transcript Variant: This variant (2, also known as OCT4B) differs in the 5' UTR, lacks a portion of the 5' coding region, and initiates translation at a downstream in-frame non-AUG (CUG) start codon, compared to variant 1. The resulting isoform (2, also known as OCT4B-190) is shorter at the N-terminus, compared to isoform 1. Variants 2 and 3 encode the same isoform (2). This variant may encode additional isoforms through the use of an alternative downstream AUG start codon, as well as an alternative upstream AUG start codon, which is polymorphic in human populations (AGG allele represented in this RefSeq, see rs3130932). Use of alternate start codons and the non-AUG start codon is described in PMID:19489092.
