PIT1 is a pituitary-specific transcription factor responsible for pituitary development and hormone expression in mammals and is a member of the POU family of transcription factors that regulate mammalian development.
The POU family is so named because the first 3 members identified were PIT1 and OCT1 of mammals, and Unc-86 of C.
elegans.
PIT1 contains 2 protein domains, termed POU-specific and POU-homeo, which are both necessary for high affinity DNA binding on genes encoding growth hormone and prolactin.
PIT1 is also important for regulation of the genes encoding prolactin and thyroid-stimulating hormone beta subunit by thyrotropin-releasing hormone and cyclic AMP.
This gene encodes a member of the POU family of transcription factors that regulate mammalian development.
The protein regulates expression of several genes involved in pituitary development and hormone expression.
Mutations in this genes result in combined pituitary hormone deficiency.
Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.
