ATF4 encodes a transcription factor that was originally identified as a widely expressed mammalian DNA bindingprotein that could bind a tax-responsive enhancer element in the LTR of HTLV-1.
The encoded protein was also isolated and characterized as the cAMP-response element binding protein 2 (CREB-2).
The protein encoded by this gene belongs to a family of DNA-binding proteins that includes the AP-1 family of transcription factors, cAMP-response element binding proteins (CREBs) and CREB-like proteins.
These transcription factors share a leucine zipper region that is involved in protein-protein interactions, located C-terminal to a stretch of basic amino acids that functions as a DNA binding domain.
Two alternative transcripts encoding the same protein have been described.
Two pseudogenes are located on the X chromsome at q28 in a region containing a large inverted duplication.Sato T., Shimotohno K.
