Abstract excerpt
The Oct-2 protein is a tissue-specific POU-homeodomain transcription factor. It has been considered to represent a developmental regulator of immunoglobulin gene expression by virtue of its interaction with a functionally essential octamer element found in immunoglobulin gene promoters. This prop...
