Function |
Transcriptional coactivator of the p300/CBP-mediated trancription complex. Activates transactivation through cAMP response element (CRE) sites. Protects against cell death by inducing antiapoptotic and repressing pro-apoptotic transcripts. Stimulates transcription from the estrogen-responsive or BCL-2 promoters. Required for depolarization-induced transcription activation of the C-FOS promoter in neurons. Associates with chromatin to the estrogen-responsive C3 promoter region. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:21172805}.

Tissue Specificity |
Expressed mainly in epithelial cells. Expressed in the central nervous system (CNS), in the ileum and within the brain in the frontal and occipital lobe. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:21172805}.
