Description:
The product of this gene functions as a transcriptional co-activator of various sequence-specific transcription factors with broad-spectrum cellular activities. The encoded protein has intrinsic histone acetyltransferase activity and also acts as a scaffold to stabilize additional protein interactions with the transcription complex. It contains a bromodomain that recognizes and binds to acetylated lysine residues on proteins. It was first identified as a factor binding to the cAMP response element-binding (CREB) protein [GeneID: 385], and only interacts with the PKA-phosphorylated form of the CREB protein. CREB and CBP co-localize to the upstream Gγ-globin cAMP-response element (G-CRE) located between -1222 and -1229 relative to the cap site to induce γ-globin expression. CBP is also crucial for erythroid differentiation as it directly binds to and activates transcription factors such as MYB, GATA1, NF-E2 and KLF.
