CREB-2 Rabbit Polyclonal Antibody

Activating transcription factor 4 (ATF4) Homo sapiens This gene encodes a transcription factor that was originally identified as a widely expressed mammalian DNA binding protein that could bind a tax-responsive enhancer element in the LTR of HTLV-1. The encoded protein was also isolated and characterized as the cAMP-response element binding protein 2 (CREB-2) . The protein encoded by this gene belongs to a family of DNA-binding proteins that includes the AP-1 family of transcription factors, cAMP-response element binding proteins (CREBs) and CREB-like proteins. These transcription factors share a leucine zipper region that is involved in protein-protein interactions, located C-terminal to a stretch of basic amino acids that functions as a DNA binding domain. Two alternative transcripts encoding the same protein have been described. Two pseudogenes are located on the X chromosome at q28 in a region containing a large inverted duplication. [providfunction:Transcriptional activator. Binds the cAMP response element (CRE) (consensus: 5'-GTGACGT[AC][AG]-3'), a sequence present in many viral and cellular promoters. It binds to a Tax-responsive enhancer element in the long terminal repeat of HTLV-I., similarity:Belongs to the bZIP family., similarity:Contains 1 bZIP domain., subcellular location:Colocalizes with GABBR1 in hippocampal neuron dendritic membranes., subunit:Interacts with the C-terminal region of GABBR1 via the leucine zipper of its C-terminal bZIP domain. Interacts with the C-terminal region of GABBR2 (By similarity) . Binds DNA as a homo-or heterodimer. Interacts with the N-terminal region of CEP290.
