A Splice Variant of Stress Response Gene ATF3 Counteracts NF-κB-dependent Anti-apoptosis through Inhibiting Recruitment of CREB-binding Protein/p300 Coactivator

Abstract

Activating transcription factor (ATF) 3 plays a role in determining cell fate and generates a variety of alternatively spliced isoforms in stress response. We have reported previously that splice variant ATF3ΔZip2, which lacks the leucine zipper region, is induced in response to various stress stimuli. However, its biological function has not been elucidated. By using cells treated and cells ATF3ΔZip2, that cells to cell in response to in factor transcription of and a and of the of the in and the of that of in and the which cell fate in stress response. Activating transcription factor (ATF) 3 plays a role in determining cell fate and generates a variety of alternatively spliced isoforms in stress response. We have reported previously that splice variant ATF3ΔZip2, which lacks the leucine zipper region, is induced in response to various stress stimuli. However, its biological function has not been elucidated. By using cells treated and cells ATF3ΔZip2, that cells to cell in response to in factor transcription of and a and of the of the in and the of that of in and the which cell fate in stress response. of transcription is of the the and of variety of isoforms is a of of splice and role in in response of cells to various stimuli.
