Cyclic AMP-responsive element-binding protein 1 (UniProt P16220; also known as cAMP-responsive element-binding protein 1, CREB-1) is encoded by the CREB1 gene (Gene ID 1385) in human. CREB is a transcription factor that binds the cAMP response elements (CRE) and regulates the transcription of the downstream genes. CREB activity is regulation via phosphorylation by various kinases, including PKA, and Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinases. Genes known to be regulated by CREB include c-fos, BDNF, tyrosine hydroxylase, neuropeptides (such as somatostatin, enkephalin, VGF, and corticotropin-releasing hormone), as well as the circadian clock genes PER1 and PER2. CREB is critical for memory formation across a wide range of species.
Synonyms: Cyclic AMP-responsive element-binding protein 1 (pSer133), cAMP-responsive element-binding protein 1 (pSer133), CREB-1 (pSer133), CREB-A (pSer133), htCREB (pSer133), CREB-B (pSer119)
Application: The unconjugated antibody (Cat. No. 06-519) is shown to be suitable also for Electrophoretic Mobility Shift Assay (EMSA), immunohistochemistry, and Western blotting applications.
