function:Transcription factor that acts during endoplasmic reticulum stress by activating unfolded protein response target genes. Specifically involved in ER-stress response in astrocytes in the central nervous system (By similartity). May play a role in gliosis. In vitro, binds to box-B element, cAMP response element (CRE) and CRE-like sequences, and activates transcription through box-B element but not through CRE.,PTM:Controlled by regulated intramembrane proteolysis (RIP). Following ER stress a fragment containing the cytoplasmic transcription factor domain is released by proteolysis. The cleavage is performed sequentially by site-1 and site-2 proteases (PS1 and PS2) and is triggered by translocation to the Golgi apparatus.,similarity:Belongs to the bZIP family. ATF subfamily.,similarity:Contains 1 bZIP domain.,subcellular location:Under ER stress the cleaved N-terminal cytoplasmic domain translocates into the nucleus.,tissue specificity:Ubiquitously expressed with high levels in pancreas and prostate. Expressed at relatively lower levels in brain.,
Endoplasmic reticulum membrane ; Single-pass type II membrane protein. ER membrane resident protein. Upon ER stress, translocated to the Golgi apparatus where it is cleaved. The cytosolic N-terminal fragment (processed cyclic AMP-responsive element-binding protein 3-like protein 1) is transported into the nucleus. .; [Processed cyclic AMP-responsive element-binding protein 3-like protein 1]: Nucleus . Upon ER stress, transported into the nucleus. .
Expressed in several tissues, with highest levels in pancreas and prostate. Expressed at relatively lower levels in brain.
