Crebbp Gene Summary [Rat]

Enables several functions, including SMAD binding activity; peroxisome proliferator activated receptor binding activity; and transcription coactivator binding activity. Involved in several processes, including behavioral response to cocaine; long-term memory; and positive regulation of cell adhesion molecule production. Located in nuclear body. Part of transcription regulator complex. Biomarker of alcohol use disorder. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Rubinstein-Taybi syndrome; acute lymphoblastic leukemia; and acute myeloid leukemia. Orthologous to human CREBBP (CREB binding protein).

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