Dynamic glycosylation of the transcription factor CREB: a potential role in gene regulation.
نویسندگان
چکیده
We report that CREB (cyclic AMP-responsive element-binding protein), a transcription factor essential for long-term memory, is O-GlcNAc glycosylated in the mammalian brain. Glycosylation occurs at two sites within the Q2 domain and disrupts the interaction between CREB and TAFII130, thereby repressing the transcriptional activity of CREB in vitro. These findings have important implications for the role of O-GlcNAc glycosylation in gene regulation, and they provide a link between O-GlcNAc and information storage processes in the brain.

Dynamic O-GlcNAc Modification Regulates CREB-Mediated Gene Expression and Memory Formation
The transcription factor cyclic AMP-response element binding protein (CREB) is a key regulator of many neuronal processes, including brain development, circadian rhythm and long-term memory. Studies of CREB have focused on its phosphorylation, although the diversity of CREB functions in the brain suggests additional forms of regulation. Here we expand on a chemoenzymatic strategy for quantifyin...

Chapter 5 CREB Glycosylation Moderates Phosphorylation-Dependent CREB Activity in Cultured Pancreatic Cell Lines. Summary. In vitro studies of CREB glycosylation found that the transactivation potential of CREB is inhibited by glycosylation. Whether O-GlcNAc glycosylation is sufficiently dynamic to play a role in cellular activity has been addressed by several previous studies performed in panc...

κ-casein is a glycosilated protein in mammalian milk that plays an essential role in the milk micelles. Control of κ-casein expression reflects this essential role, although an understanding of the mechanisms involved lags behind that of the other milk protein genes. Transcriptional regulation, a first mechanism for controlling the development of organisms, is carried out by transcription facto...

O-GlcNAc glycosylation is a carbohydrate modification found to play a role in the regulation of intracellular processes, such as proteasomal degradation, cytoskeletal dynamics and protein expression. Our interests in elucidating the role of glycosylation in cell signaling and mechanisms that control gene expression directed us to the examination of CREB as a possible O-GlcNAc glycosylated prote...
