cAMP Responsive Element Binding Protein 1

CREB3L2 (cAMP responsive element binding protein 3-like 2)

519 amino acids, 57 kDa. The amino acid sequence spanning residues 291-356 of the predicted human CREB3L2 protein contains a consensus B-ZIP domain highly similar to that in the CREB3L1, CREB3L3, CREB3L4, CREB3 and Drosophila Bbf-2 transcription factors with 80, 60, 59, 56 and 71% identity, respectively. It also contains the amino acid sequence RRKKKEY which is exactly conserved among CREB, CRE...

Effect of opioids on Ca2+/cAMP responsive element binding protein.

Ca2+/cAMP response element binding protein (CREB) is an important factor linking the opioid-regulated secondary messenger systems to alterations in gene expression. Opioids regulate CREB level, its phosphorylation and binding to its corresponding response element in the promoters of several genes implicated in drug addiction. CREB mediates the action of opioids on the expression of several gene...

cAMP-responsive binding element after spinal cord injury in mouse

Ethanol stimulates cAMP-responsive element (CRE)-mediated transcription via CRE-binding protein and cAMP-dependent protein kinase.

Alcoholism is characterized by tolerance, dependence, and unrestrained craving for alcohol. Adaptive responses, including changes in gene expression in neurons, are thought to account for some of these complex behavioral abnormalities. We have shown in the NG108-15 neuroblastoma x glioma hybrid cell line that ethanol increases cellular cAMP levels via activation of adenosine A(2) receptors, lea...

Deacetylase inhibitors and the viral transactivator TaxBLV synergistically activate bovine leukemia virus gene expression via a cAMP-responsive element- and cAMP-responsive element-binding protein-dependent mechanism.

Efficient bovine leukemia virus (BLV) transcription requires the virus-encoded transactivator Tax(BLV), which acts through three Tax(BLV)-responsive elements located in the 5' long terminal repeat. It has been proposed that the binding of the CRE-binding protein (CREB) and the activating transcription factor (ATF) to the three imperfect cAMP-responsive elements (CREs) located in each Tax(BLV)-r...
