activating transcription factor-1; cyclic AMP-dependent transcription factor ATF-1; TREB36 protein (ATF1)
Forms heterodimer with CREB.
Function:
- binds the cAMP response element (CRE) (consensus: 5'-GTGACGT[AC][AG]-3'), a sequence present in many viral & cellular promoters
- binds to the Tax-responsive element (TRE) of HTLV-I
- mediates PKA-induced stimulation of CRE-reporter genes
- binds DNA as a dimer
Structure:
- belongs to the bZIP family, ATF subfamily
- contains 1 bZIP domain
- contains 1 KID (kinase-inducible) domain
