CREB: a Ca 2+ -Regulated Transcription Factor Phosphorylated by Calmodulin-Dependent Kinases

Sheng, Morgan, Thompson, Margaret A., Greenberg, Michael E.·1991·Science

Abstract

The mechanism by which Ca 2+ mediates gene induction in response to membrane depolarization was investigated. The adenosine 3′,5′-monophosphate (cAMP) response element-binding protein (CREB) was shown to function as a Ca 2+ -regulated transcription factor and as a substrate for depolarization-activated Ca 2+ -calmodulin-dependent protein kinases (CaM kinases) I and II. CREB residue Ser 133 was the major site of phosphorylation by the CaM kinases in vitro and of phosphorylation after membrane depolarization in vivo. Mutation of Ser 133 impaired the ability of CREB to respond to Ca 2+ . These results suggest that CaM kinases may transduce electrical signals to the nucleus and that CREB functions to integrate Ca 2+ and cAMP signals.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
