Potential relevance to the human ageing process
- Main reason for selection
- Entry selected based on evidence linking the gene product to the regulation or control of genes previously linked to ageing
- Description
CREB1 is an important transcription factor involved in a variety of processes. CREB1-null mice die shortly after birth [1729]. Results from mice suggest that CREB1 may contribute to type 2 diabetes [841] and neurodegeneration [843]. CREB1 may also regulate some ageing-related genes such as ATM [1013]. Because it is involved in so many different functions, a role for CREB1 in human ageing is plausible though so far unverified.
