PG - 35-41 AB - A novel region referred to as the POU-domain is present in two tissue-specific transcription factors, Pit-1 and Oct-2, that activate expression of genes specifying pituitary and lymphocyte phenotypes. We report the identification of multiple new members of a large family of POU-domain genes expressed in adult brain, and document that all the known mammalian POU-domain genes, including Pit-1 and Oct-2, are expressed widely in the developing nervous system.
