摘要: Cyclic AMP (cAMP) is an intracellular second messenger that activates transcription of many cellular genes. A palindromic consensus DNA sequence, TGACGTCA, functions as a cAMP-responsive transcriptional enhancer (CRE). The CRE binds protein 38 kD in placental JEG-3 cells. lambda gt11 library was screened for expression specific CRE-binding proteins with the sequence radioactive probe. cDNA encoding 326 amino acids binding properties (CREB) isolated. contains COOH-terminal basic region adjacent to similar "leucine zipper" believed be involved and protein-protein contacts several other DNA-associated including products c-myc, c-fos, c-jun oncogenes GCN4. CREB also NH2-terminal acidic proposed potential activation domain. putative DNA-binding domain structurally corresponding domains phorbol ester-responsive yeast factor
