FHL5
# FHL5

Four and a half LIM domains protein 5 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the FHL5 gene.

## Function

The protein encoded by this gene is coordinately expressed with activator of cAMP-responsive element modulator (CREM). It is associated with CREM and confers a powerful transcriptional activation function. CREM acts as a transcription factor essential for the differentiation of spermatids into mature spermatozoa. There are multiple polyadenylation sites found in this gene.

## Interactions

FHL5 has been shown to interact with CREB1 and CAMP responsive element modulator.
