Pituitary-specific positive transcription factor 1

Protein that controls rate of transcription of GH genes

POU class 1 homeobox 1, also known as pituitary-specific positive transcription factor 1 (PIT1), POU domain, class 1, transcription factor 1 (POU1F1) and growth hormone factor 1 (GHF1), is a transcription factor for growth hormone encoded by the gene POU1F1.^[5]^[6]
