Anti-CREB pS133 antibody reacts with phosphorylated human CREB at pS133 and shows minimal reactivity by western blot with non-phosphorylated CREB and minimal reactivity (1%) by ELISA against the non-phosphorylated form of the immunizing peptide. This antibody was assayed against a variety of tissues including fibroblasts and B-cell lysates.  Bands of 46 and 43 kDa corresponding to phosphorylated CREB are observed in western blots. Anti-CREB pS133 is suitable for the detection by immunoblot of phosphorylated human, mouse and rat CREB. No cross-reactivity occurs with non-phosphorylated CREB. For immunohistochemistry, formalin fixed, paraffin embedded human tissue shows moderate to strong nuclear staining in a variety of cells with minimal background staining. Although not tested this antibody is likely functional by FACS and immunoprecipitation.

CREB1

The CREB (Cyclic AMP-response-element-binding-protein 1) gene encodes a transcription factor that is a member of the leucine zipper family of DNA binding proteins. This protein binds as a homodimer to the cAMP-responsive element (CRE element TGANNTCA), an octameric palindrome. Phosphorylation by cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA) at serine-119 is required for interaction with DNA and phosphorylation at serine-133 allows CREB to interact with CBP (CREB binding protein) leading to interaction with RNA polymerase II. Alternate splicing of this gene results in two transcript variants encoding different isoforms.

Phosphorylation-dependent transcription factor that stimulates transcription upon binding to the DNA cAMP response element (CRE), a sequence present in many viral and cellular promoters. Transcription activation is enhanced by the TORC coactivators which act independently of Ser-133 phosphorylation. Involved in different cellular processes including the synchronization of circadian rhythmicity and the differentiation of adipose cells.
