OverviewNCBI Gene

The product of this gene belongs to the CRE (cAMP response element)-binding protein family. Members of this family contain zinc-finger and bZIP DNA-binding domains. The encoded protein specifically binds to CRE as a homodimer or a heterodimer with c-Jun or CRE-BP1, and functions as a CRE-dependent trans-activator. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been identified. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

LocalizationUniProt · AlphaFold · HPA

Antibody and autoantibody relevanceSeroatlas analysis

Seroatlas reads CREB5 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against CREB5 could matter depends on whether native CREB5 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.

CREB5 is annotated as predominantly intracellular. Intracellular proteins are common autoantibody markers, becoming visible to the immune system after cell injury or altered processing, but are usually markers of disease rather than direct drivers.

Annotation status

The present source text does not explicitly label CREB5 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
