Summary: Enables identical protein binding activity and transcription coactivator binding activity. Involved in determination of adult lifespan; intracellular signal transduction; and regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Predicted to be located in nucleus. Predicted to be part of transcription regulator complex. Is expressed in several structures, including germ line; gonad; head ganglion; intestine; and neurons. Used to study cardiovascular system disease. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Parkinson's disease; alcohol dependence; and heroin dependence. Orthologous to human ATF1 (activating transcription factor 1); CREB1 (cAMP responsive element binding protein 1); and CREM (cAMP responsive element modulator).

Loss of circRNAs from the crh-1 gene extends the mean lifespan in Caenorhabditis elegans.
Title: Loss of circRNAs from the crh-1 gene extends the mean lifespan in Caenorhabditis elegans.
Removal of this single isoform of creb1/crh-1 shows defects in long-term memory formation in the animal and expression of CREB1/CRH-1e in a single pair of neurons is sufficient to rescue the memory defects seen in the mutant animals
Title: Differential Regulation of Innate and Learned Behavior by Creb1/Crh-1 in Caenorhabditis elegans.
Here the authors show that the Caenorhabditis elegans SHN-1/Shank binds L-type calcium channels and that increased and decreased shn-1 gene dosage alter L-channel current and activity-induced expression of a CRH-1/CREB transcriptional target (gem-4 Copine).
Title: Shank is a dose-dependent regulator of Ca(v)1 calcium current and CREB target expression.
Both CRH-1 and FLP-6 are necessary and sufficient for longevity at warm temperatures.
Title: A C. elegans Thermosensory Circuit Regulates Longevity through crh-1/CREB-Dependent flp-6 Neuropeptide Signaling.
In Caenorhabditis elegans, the amine neurotransmitter octopamine activates a CREB homolog, CRH-1, in cholinergic SIA neurons, whereas dopamine suppresses CREB activation by inhibiting octopamine signaling in response to food stimuli.
Title: Dopamine modulates acetylcholine release via octopamine and CREB signaling in Caenorhabditis elegans.
crh-1 is essential for long-term memory for context conditioning and habituation.
Title: Genetic dissection of memory for associative and non-associative learning in Caenorhabditis elegans.
This study demonistrated that crh-1 is required for long-term habituation and show that the interneurons of the tap withdrawal response circuit are the locus of plasticity for long-term mechanosensory habituation in C. elegans
Title: Tap withdrawal circuit interneurons require CREB for long-term habituation in Caenorhabditis elegans.
Downregulation of crtc-1 increases lifespan in a crh-1-dependent manner and directly reducing crh-1 expression increases longevity, substantiating a role for CRTCs and CREB in ageing
Title: Lifespan extension induced by AMPK and calcineurin is mediated by CRTC-1 and CREB.
Crh-1 is required for long-term associative memory, but not for learning or short-term memory. Its expression declines with age and differs in the longevity mutants, and its activity correlate with memory performance.
Title: Insulin signaling and dietary restriction differentially influence the decline of learning and memory with age.
In c. elegans, the CREB ortholog CRH-1 activates a CREB protein fusion reporter in a subset of neurons during starvation.
Title: Starvation induces cAMP response element-binding protein-dependent gene expression through octopamine-Gq signaling in Caenorhabditis elegans.
