Entrez Gene Summary:
This gene encodes a transcription factor that is a member of the leucine zipper family of DNA binding proteins. This protein binds to the cAMP-responsive element (CRE), an octameric palindrome. The protein forms a homodimer or heterodimer with c-Jun and stimulates CRE-dependent transcription. The protein is also a histone acetyltransferase (HAT) that specifically acetylates histones H2B and H4 in vitro; thus it may represent a class of sequence-specific factors that activate transcription by direct effects on chromatin components. Additional transcript variants have been identified but their biological validity has not been determined.
UniProt Summary:
FUNCTION: SwissProt: P15336 # Transcriptional activator, probably constitutive, which binds to the cAMP-responsive element (CRE) (consensus: 5'- GTGACGT[AC][AG]-3'), a sequence present in many viral and cellular promoters. Interaction with JUN redirects JUN to bind to CRES preferentially over the 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate response elements (TRES) as part of an ATF2-c-Jun complex.
SIZE: 487 amino acids; 52277 Da
SUBUNIT: Binds DNA as a dimer and can form a homodimer in the absence of DNA. Can form a heterodimer with JUN. Interacts with SMAD3 and SMAD4. Binds through its N-terminal region to UTF1 which acts as a coactivator of ATF2 transcriptional activity.
SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Nucleus.
TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Abundant expression seen in the brain.
PTM: Phosphorylation of Thr-51 and Thr-53 by MAPK14 causes increased transcriptional activity. Also phosphorylated and activated by JNK.
SIMILARITY: SwissProt: P15336 ## Belongs to the bZIP family. ATF subfamily. & Contains 1 bZIP domain. & Contains 1 C2H2-type zinc finger.

Human
