About This Section

Entrez Gene summary for ATF6:
This gene encodes a transcription factor that activates target genes for the unfolded protein response (UPR) during
endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress. Although it is a transcription factor, this protein is unusual in that it is
synthesized as a transmembrane protein that is embedded in the ER. It functions as an ER stress sensor/transducer, and
following ER stress-induced proteolysis, it functions as a nuclear transcription factor via a cis-acting ER stress
response element (ERSE) that is present in the promoters of genes encoding ER chaperones. This protein has been
identified as a survival factor for quiescent but not proliferative squamous carcinoma cells. There have been
conflicting reports about the association of polymorphisms in this gene with diabetes in different populations, but
another polymorphism has been associated with increased plasma cholesterol levels. This gene is also thought to be a
potential therapeutic target for cystic fibrosis. (provided by RefSeq, Aug 2011)

UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot: ATF6A_HUMAN, P18850
Function: Transcription factor that acts during endoplasmic reticulum stress by activating unfolded protein response
target genes. Binds DNA on the 5'-CCAC[GA]-3'half of the ER stress response element (ERSE) (5'-CCAAT-N(9)-CCAC[GA]-3')
and of ERSE II (5'-ATTGG-N-CCACG-3'). Binding to ERSE requires binding of NF-Y to ERSE. Could also be involved in
activation of transcription by the serum response factor

  • During unfolded protein response an approximative 50 kDa fragment containing the cytoplasmic transcription factor
  • domain is released by proteolysis. The cleavage seems to be performed sequentially by site-1 and site-2 proteases1
  • N-glycosylated. The glycosylation status may serve as a sensor for ER homeostasis, resulting in ATF6 activation to
