“…In its active form, S1P cleaves several proproteins at the C-terminus of the consensus motif RX(L,V,I)Z↓, whereby X can be any amino acid, excluding Pro or Cys and Z is any residue (preferably Leu) except Val, Pro, Cys, or Glu (11,14). Accordingly, S1P is implicated in the cleavage-dependent activation of, amongst others, several transcription factors (11,15). Other than SREBP1 and 2 (1,10), those include ER stress response related transcription factors like activating transcription factor 6 (ATF6) (16,17), cyclic AMP-responsive element binding proteins CREB3 (18), CREB3L1 (19), CREB4 (20), and CREB3L3 (21).…”
