It is mainly expressed in the brain, especially in neuroectodermal cell lineages. With transcription factors ASCL1/Mash1 and Myt1L, POU3F2 has been used to induce neuronal differentiation of human stem cells and mouse fibroblasts. The full length transcript of POU3F2 produces the transcription factor N-Oct3, while alternate transcription initiation at amino acids 181 and 200 produce N-Oct5A and N-Oct5B isoforms, respectively.
