This protein binds the cAMP response element (CRE) (consensus: 5-GTGACGT[AC][AG]-3), a sequence present in many viral and cellular promoters. Represses transcription from promoters with ATF sites. It may repress transcription by stabilizing the binding of inhibitory cofactors at the promoter. Isoform 2 activates transcription presumably by sequestering inhibitory cofactors away from the promoters. Source: Recombinant full length protein corresponding to aa1-181 of human Cyclic AMP-Dependent Transcription Factor ATF-3, fused to 6xHis-Tag at N-terminal, expressed in E. coli.
