Gene: ATF3
Alternate names for this Gene: -
Gene Summary: This gene encodes a member of the mammalian activation transcription factor/cAMP responsive element-binding (CREB) protein family of transcription factors. This gene is induced by a variety of signals, including many of those encountered by cancer cells, and is involved in the complex process of cellular stress response. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. It is possible that alternative splicing of this gene may be physiologically important in the regulation of target genes.
Gene is located in Chromosome: 1
Location in Chromosome : 1q32.3
Description of this Gene: activating transcription factor 3
Type of Gene: protein-coding
