Creb5 Gene Summary [Mouse]
Enables DNA-binding transcription activator activity, RNA polymerase II-specific. Involved in white fat cell differentiation. Acts upstream of or within adipose tissue development; fat cell differentiation; and positive regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Located in nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including limb; neural tube; oral epithelium; palatal shelf; and telencephalon ventricular layer. Orthologous to human CREB5 (cAMP responsive element binding protein 5). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

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 Creb5 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
