Luman/CREB3 is a transcription factor that is a member of the cAMP-response-element-binding protein family of basic region-leucine zipper transcription factors. This protein interacts with host cell factor 1, which also associates with the herpes simplex virus protein VP16 to induce the transcription of herpes simplex virus. Currently, the physiological function of Luman/CREB3 in reproductive processes remains unclear. In this study, quantitative real-time PCR and immunofluorescence assays were used to investigate the expression and localization of Luman in mouse oocytes as well as in early embryonic development. Luman protein was detected in the germinal vesicle and metaphase II stage oocytes, and was distributed in the cytoplasm, nucleus, and polar body of the oocyte stage. However, Luman protein and mRNA expression levels were significantly (P < 0.05) increased before activation of the zygotic genome, and expression levels peaked in 4-cell embryos. Expression levels were significantly (P < 0.05) decreased following the 8-cell stage throughout the blastocyst stage. The Luman protein was also distributed in the nucleus and cytoplasm in the early preimplantation embryo and showed enhanced nuclear staining starting from the 2-cell stage embryo up to the 8-cell stage embryo. The differences in the expression and localization of Luman in mouse oocytes and early embryo suggested that Luman plays an important role in oocyte maturation and early embryonic development processes.

D005455 Fluorescent Antibody Technique Test for tissue antigen using either a direct method, by conjugation of antibody with fluorescent dye (FLUORESCENT ANTIBODY TECHNIQUE, DIRECT) or an indirect method, by formation of antigen-antibody complex which is then labeled with fluorescein-conjugated anti-immunoglobulin antibody (FLUORESCENT ANTIBODY TECHNIQUE, INDIRECT). The tissue is then examined by fluorescence microscopy.

D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.

D012333 RNA, Messenger RNA sequences that serve as templates for protein synthesis. Bacterial mRNAs are generally primary transcripts in that they do not require post-transcriptional processing. Eukaryotic mRNA is synthesized in the nucleus and must be exported to the cytoplasm for translation. Most eukaryotic mRNAs have a sequence of polyadenylic acid at the 3' end, referred to as the poly(A) tail. The function of this tail is not known for certain, but it may play a role in the export of mature mRNA from the nucleus as well as in helping stabilize some mRNA molecules by retarding their degradation in the cytoplasm.

D017362 Cyclic AMP Response Element-Binding Protein A protein that has been shown to function as a calcium-regulated transcription factor as well as a substrate for depolarization-activated CALCIUM-CALMODULIN-DEPENDENT PROTEIN KINASES. This protein functions to integrate both calcium and cAMP signals.
