CREB1 is a transcription factor that is a member of the bZIP family of DNA binding proteins. It binds as a homodimer to the CRE (cAMP-Responsive Element), an octameric palindrome containing a conserved core sequence, 5-prime-TGACG-3-prime. It consists of two transcript variants encoding respective isoforms produced by alternate splicing. It is mapped to 2q32.3-q34 . It is phosphorylated by several protein kinases and induces transcription of genes in response to hormonal stimulation of the cAMP pathway. CREB1 is crucial for the consolidation of long-term conditioned fear memories, but not for encoding, storage, or retrieval of these memories. It is required for the stability of reactivated or retrieved conditioned fear memories .1) Xing J, et al. (1998) Mol Cell Biol 18 (4): 1946-55. Tan Y, et al. (1996) EMBO J; 15 (17): 4629-42.
