Gene information for CREM (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID1390
Official gene symbolCREM
Full namecAMP responsive element modulator
Aliases,ICER,MGC111110,MGC17881,MGC41893,hCREM-2,
Gene summaryThis gene encodes a bZIP transcription factor that binds to the cAMP responsive element found in many viral and cellular promoters. It is an important component of cAMP-mediated signal transduction during the spermatogenetic cycle, as well as other complex processes. Alternative promoter and translation initiation site usage allows this gene to exert spatial and temporal specificity to cAMP responsiveness. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding several different isoforms have been found for this gene, with some of them functioning as activators and some as repressors of transcription.
