Cyclic AMP Response Element-Binding Protein in the Vessel Wall [PDF]
Atherosclerosis and postangioplasty restenosis are leading causes of death in the Western world. Recent advances in our understanding of vascular biology would suggest that targeting specific signals in the post–balloon injury vessel or in persons prone to development of atherosclerosis could decrease lesion formation and in the long term decrease ...

The amino terminus of Tax is required for interaction with the cyclic AMP response element binding protein [PDF]
Tax of human T-cell leukemia virus type 1 was analyzed for interaction with the cyclic AMP response element binding protein (CREB) in vitro with and without Tax response element DNA. Mutations in the carboxy terminus of Tax (L296G and L320G) did not affect binding to CREB and led to supershifts.

Role of cyclic AMP in the control of cell-specific gene expression [PDF]
Genes have to be expressed in specific cell types at appropriate times of development dependent on external signals. cAMP signaling occurs in all cells, thus raising the question of how this signal transduction pattern is integrated into mechanisms ...

Cyclic AMP signalling in pancreatic islets [PDF]
Cyclic 3'5'AMP (cAMP) is an important physiological amplifier of glucose-induced insulin secretion by the pancreatic islet β-cell, where it is formed by the activity of adenylyl cyclases, which are stimulated by glucose, through elevation in ...

MINIREVIEW: Cyclic AMP Response Element Binding Proteins: A Cornucopia of Transcription Factors [PDF]
The expression of many cellular genes in higher eukaryotes is controlled by hormones. At the level of transcription the regulation of genes is mediated through the interactions of DNA-binding proteins with specific DNA promoter elements which are generally located in the 5′-flanking regions of the genes upstream from the transcription start sites (1–3).

The protein kinase C inhibitor, Ro-31-7459, is a potent activator of ERK and JNK MAP kinases in HUVECs and yet inhibits cyclic AMP-stimulated SOCS-3 gene induction through inactivation of the transcription factor c-Jun [PDF]
Induction of the suppressor of cytokine signalling 3 (SOCS-3) gene is vital to the normal control of inflammatory signalling. In order to understand these processes we investigated the role of the proto-oncogene component of the AP-1 transcription factor

Galectin-12 in Cellular Differentiation, Apoptosis and Polarization. [PDF]
Galectin-12 is a member of a family of mammalian lectins characterized by their affinity for β-galactosides and consensus amino acid sequences. The protein structure consists of a single polypeptide chain containing two carbohydrate-recognition domains ...

The Notch intracellular domain represses CRE-dependent transcription [PDF]
Members of the cyclic-AMP response-element binding protein (CREB) transcription factor family regulate the expression of genes needed for long-term memory formation. Loss of Notch impairs long-term, but not short-term, memory in flies and mammals.

Phosphorylation of CREB affects its binding to high and low affinity sites [PDF]
Cyclic AMP treatment of hepatoma cells leads to increased protein binding at the cyclic AMP response element (CRE) of the tyrosine aminotransferase (TAT) gene in vivo, as revealed by genomic footprinting, whereas no increase is observed at the CRE of the
