Creb3l1 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Enables DNA-binding transcription activator activity, RNA polymerase II-specific; cAMP response element binding activity; and chromatin binding activity. Involved in several processes, including extracellular matrix constituent secretion; intracellular signal transduction; and negative regulation of endoplasmic reticulum stress-induced intrinsic apoptotic signaling pathway. Acts upstream of or within regulation of ossification. Located in endoplasmic reticulum. Is active in nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; central nervous system; genitourinary system; lung; and skeleton. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in osteogenesis imperfecta type 16. Orthologous to human CREB3L1 (cAMP responsive element binding protein 3 like 1).

Protein Domains

A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in mouse Creb3l1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
