CREB3
protein-codingcAMP responsive element binding protein 3, the group of MicroRNA protein coding host genes|CREB3 transcription factor family
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-response element and regulates cell proliferation. The protein interacts with host cell factor C1, which also associates with the herpes simplex virus (HSV) protein VP16 that induces transcription of HSV immediate-early genes. This protein and VP16 both bind to the same site on host cell factor C1. It is thought that the interaction between this protein and host cell factor C1 plays a role in the establishment of latency during HSV infection. This protein also plays a role in leukocyte migration, tumor suppression, and endoplasmic reticulum stress-associated protein degradation. Additional transcript variants have been identified, but their biological validity has not been determined.[provided by RefSeq, Nov 2009]

ClinVar Variants & Pathogenicity by Type
Statistics based on transcript NM_006368.5. Only rare variants are included.
We include only reliable ClinVar variants with their consequences to MANE Select, MANE Plus Clinical transcripts, or transcripts with TSL equal to 1. Click a count to filter the variants table below.
Slight differences between displayed counts and ClinVar may occur due to a different transcript/consequence chosen by our variant effect predictor, or because we classify Benign/Likely benign as Likely benign and Pathogenic/Likely pathogenic as Likely pathogenic.

- Function
- FUNCTION: Endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-bound sequence-specific transcription factor that directly binds DNA and activates transcription (PubMed:9271389, PubMed:19779205, PubMed:10984507, PubMed:15845366, PubMed:16940180). Plays a role in the unfolded protein response (UPR), promoting cell survival versus ER stress- induced apoptotic cell death (PubMed:15845366, PubMed:16940180). Also involved in cell proliferation, migration and differentiation, tumor suppression and inflammatory gene expression. Acts as a positive regulator of LKN-1/CCL15-induced chemotaxis signaling of leukocyte cell migration (PubMed:19779205, PubMed:15001559, PubMed:17296613). Associates with chromatin to the HERPUD1 promoter (PubMed:16940180). Also induces transcriptional activation of chemokine receptors (PubMed:18587271, PubMed:17296613). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10984507, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15001559, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15845366, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16940180, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17296613, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18587271, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19779205, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9271389}.; FUNCTION: Isoform 2: Functions as a negative transcriptional regulator in ligand-induced transcriptional activation of the glucocorticoid receptor NR3C1 by recruiting and activating histone deacetylases (HDAC1, HDAC2 and HDAC6). Also decreases the acetylation level of histone H4. Does not promote the chemotactic activity of leukocyte cells. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:19779205}.; FUNCTION: (Microbial infection) Isoform 1: Plays a role in herpes simplex virus-1 (HSV-1) latent infection and reactivation from latency. Represses the VP16-mediated transactivation of immediate early genes of the HSV-1 virus by sequestering host cell factor-1 HCFC1 in the ER membrane of sensory neurons, thereby preventing the initiation of the replicative cascade leading to latent infection. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10623756, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15705566}.; FUNCTION: (Microbial infection) Processed cyclic AMP-responsive element-binding protein 3: Activates transcription of genes required for reactivation of the latent HSV-1 virus. It's transcriptional activity is inhibited by CREBZF in a HCFC1- dependent manner, by the viral transactivator protein VP16. Binds DNA to the cAMP response element (CRE) (consensus: 5'- GTGACGT[AG][AG]-3') and C/EBP sequences present in many viral promoters. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10623756}.;
