SUMMARY back to top
Summary
[Wormbase] cbp-1 encodes a homolog of the mammalian transcriptional cofactors CBP (OMIM:600140) and p300 (E1A-BINDING PROTEIN, 300-KD; OMIM:602700) that have been shown to possess histone acetyltransferase activity, and which, when mutated, lead to Rubinstein-Taybi syndrome (OMIM:180849) and colorectal cancer (OMIM:114500); at least one splicing form of CBP-1 exhibits histone acetyltransferase (HAT) activity in vitro and has a glutamine/asparagine-rich domain; CBP-1 is required during embryogenesis for differentiation of all non-neuronal somatic cell types; CBP-1 is expressed very early in embryogenesis, suggesting that it may interact with maternally provided transcription factors, such as SKN-1, to specific developmental fates.
Wormbase predicts 3 models, but Caenorhabditis elegans cDNA sequences in GenBank, dbEST, Trace and SRA, filtered against clone rearrangements, coaligned on the genome and clustered in a minimal non-redundant way by the manually supervised AceView program, support at least 5 spliced variants

AceView synopsis, each blue text links to tables and details
Expression: According to AceView, this gene is expressed at very high level, 4.5 times the average gene in this release, at all stages of development [Kohara cDNAs]. The expression profile for the gene, derived from the proportion of animals at each stage in each Kohara library is: embryos 18%, L1 or L2 larvae 25%, L3 to adult (including dauer) 57%. See the in situ hybridization pattern in Kohara NextDB. The sequence of this gene is defined by 33 cDNA clones and 26 elements defined by RNA-seq, some from embryo (seen 7 times), mixed (7), l2 (6), l1 (3), l4 (2), dauer (once). We annotate structural defects or features in 7 cDNA clones.
Alternative mRNA variants and regulation: The gene contains 15 distinct gt-ag introns. Transcription produces at least 6 different mRNAs, 5 alternatively spliced variants and 1 unspliced form. cbp-1.a is transpliced to SL1. There are 2 probable alternative promotors, 2 non overlapping alternative last exons and 10 validated alternative polyadenylation sites (see the diagram). The mRNAs appear to differ by truncation of the 5' end, truncation of the 3' end, presence or absence of 2 cassette exons, overlapping exons with different boundaries.
Function: There are 11 articles specifically referring to this gene in PubMed. In addition we point below to 15 abstracts. This essential gene is associated to a phenotype (cell determination and differentiation, Defect in cell division, Embryonic Lethal (zygotic), Sterile adult, unhealthy). Functionally, the gene has been proposed to participate in processes (regulation of transcription, regulation of transcription, DNA-dependent). Proteins are expected to have molecular functions (histone acetyltransferase activity, protein binding activity, transcription co-activator activity, transcription cofactor activity, zinc ion binding activity) and to localize in nucleus. These proteins appear to interact with other proteins (GEI-21, HIF-1). The gene interacts with 5 other genes (HDA-1, LET-60, LIN-1, PRY-1, SUR-6).
Protein coding potential: The 5 spliced and the unspliced mRNAs putatively encode good proteins, altogether 6 different isoforms (2 complete, 2 COOH complete, 2 partial), some containing domains Bromodomain, Protein of unknown function DUF902, CREBbp, Transcriptional coactivation, Coactivator CBP, KIX, Zinc finger, TAZ-type, Zinc finger, ZZ-type [Pfam], a coiled coil stretch [Psort2].
