ATF2 encodes a transcription factor that is a member of the leucine zipper family of DNA binding proteins. The encoded protein (activating transcription factor 2) has been identified as a moonlighting protein based on its ability to perform mechanistically distinct functions This protein binds to the cAMP-responsive element (CRE), an octameric palindrome. It forms a homodimer or a heterodimer with c-Jun and stimulates CRE-dependent transcription. This protein is also a histone acetyltransferase (HAT) that specifically acetylates histones H2B and H4 in vitro; thus it may represent a class of sequence-specific factors that activate transcription by direct effects on chromatin components. The encoded protein may also be involved in cell's DNA damage response independent of its role in transcriptional regulation. Several alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for ATF2.

Activating transcription factor 2 (ATF2), also known as CREB-2 and cyclic AMP-dependent transcription factor ATF-2, is a bZIP transcription factor that integrates CRE/AP-1 transcription with cellular stress and DNA-damage responses. Human ATF2 maps to NCBI Gene 1386 and reviewed UniProtKB P15336; this record links the verified target to related ABMIUM catalogue products.
Biological function: ATF2 is a transcriptional activator that binds CRE or AP-1 response elements depending on its dimerization partner. Curated annotations support roles in gene-expression control and DNA-damage responses, with stress-regulated transcriptional activity and subcellular localization.
