A CREBZF/Zhangfei isoform activates CHOP during prolonged cellular stress
Bibliographic record
Abstract
ABSTRACT The basic leucine zipper transcription factor CREBZF (Zhangfei or ZF) was identified through its interaction with Herpes Simplex Virus-1 related cellular protein HCF-1. CREBZF has been implicated in cellular stress responses through its interaction with other proteins, such as CREB3/Luman and ATF4. Here we investigated the production of four CREBZF isoforms, which arise from translational initiation of a downstream AUG at codon 83, and mRNA alternative splicing that adds an IFFFR pentapeptidyl tail to the C-terminus. We found that in addition to transcriptional activation, the short-tailed CREBZF (stZF) isoform was specifically induced by prolonged ER stress treatment. This stZF isoform is a potent transcriptional activator of the pro-apoptotic protein CHOP. Overexpression of stZF activates transcription of CHOP through a CCAAT enhancer binding protein (C/EBP)-ATF site, and promotes apoptosis. We propose that 1) CREBZF is a key component of the Integrated Stress Response (ISR); 2) stZF is essential for the role of CREBZF in inducing CHOP and promoting cell death upon prolonged cellular stress.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
