Signal transducer and transcription activator that mediates cellular responses to interleukins, KITLG/SCF, LEP and other growth factors (PubMed:10688651, PubMed:12359225, PubMed:12873986, PubMed:15194700, PubMed:15653507, PubMed:16285960, PubMed:17344214, PubMed:18242580, PubMed:18782771, PubMed:22306293, PubMed:23084476, PubMed:28262505, PubMed:32929201, PubMed:38404237). Once activated, recruits coactivators, such as NCOA1 or MED1, to the promoter region of the target gene (PubMed:15653507, PubMed:16285960, PubMed:17344214, PubMed:18782771, PubMed:28262505, PubMed:32929201). May mediate cellular responses to activated FGFR1, FGFR2, FGFR3 and FGFR4 (PubMed:12873986). Upon activation of IL6ST/gp130 signaling by interleukin-6 (IL6), binds to the IL6-responsive elements identified in the promoters of various acute-phase protein genes (PubMed:12359225). Activated by IL31 through IL31RA (PubMed:15194700). Acts as a regulator of inflammatory response by regulating differentiation of naive CD4(+) T-cells into T-helper Th17 or regulatory T-cells (Treg): acetylation promotes its transcription activity and cell differentiation while deacetylation and oxidation of lysine residues by LOXL3 inhibits differentiation (PubMed:28065600, PubMed:28262505). Involved in cell cycle regulation by inducing the expression of key genes for the progression from G1 to S phase, such as CCND1 (PubMed:17344214). Mediates the effects of LEP on melanocortin production, body energy homeostasis and lactation (By similarity). May play an apoptotic role by transctivating BIRC5 expression under LEP activation (PubMed:18242580). Cytoplasmic STAT3 represses macroautophagy by inhibiting EIF2AK2/PKR activity (PubMed:23084476). Plays a crucial role in basal beta cell functions, such as regulation of insulin secretion (By similarity). Following JAK/STAT signaling activation and as part of a complex with NFATC3 and NFATC4, binds to the alpha-beta E4 promoter region of CRYAB and activates transcription in cardiomyocytes (By similarity).
Hyper-IgE syndrome 1, autosomal dominant, with recurrent infections

Autoimmune disease, multisystem, infantile-onset, 1
ADMIO1

Other features include short stature, non-specific dermatitis, hypothyroidism, autoimmune arthritis, and delayed puberty.
None
The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.
Tyrosine phosphorylated upon stimulation with EGF. Tyrosine phosphorylated in response to constitutively activated FGFR1, FGFR2, FGFR3 and FGFR4 (By similarity). Activated through tyrosine phosphorylation by BMX. Tyrosine phosphorylated in response to IL6, IL11, LIF, CNTF, KITLG/SCF, CSF1, EGF, PDGF, IFN-alpha, LEP and OSM. Activated KIT promotes phosphorylation on tyrosine residues and subsequent translocation to the nucleus. Phosphorylated on serine upon DNA damage, probably by ATM or ATR. Serine phosphorylation is important for the formation of stable DNA-binding STAT3 homodimers and maximal transcriptional activity. ARL2BP may participate in keeping the phosphorylated state of STAT3 within the nucleus. Upon LPS challenge, phosphorylated within the nucleus by IRAK1. Upon erythropoietin treatment, phosphorylated on Ser-727 by RPS6KA5. Dephosphorylation on tyrosine residues by PTPN2 negatively regulates IL6/interleukin-6 signaling (By similarity). Phosphorylation at Tyr-705 by PTK6, isoform M2 of PKM (PKM2) or FER leads to an increase of its transcriptional activity (PubMed:12763138, PubMed:16568091, PubMed:21135090, PubMed:22306293, PubMed:32929201). Phosphorylation at Tyr-705 is increased in the presence of calcineurin (By similarity). Phosphorylation at Tyr-640 by TYK2 negatively regulates transcriptional activity (PubMed:29162862).
Acetylated on lysine residues by EP300/p300, promoting its activation (PubMed:15653507, PubMed:16285960, PubMed:18782771). Acetylation at Lys-49 and Lys-87 by EP300/p300 promotes its activation (PubMed:15653507, PubMed:16285960, PubMed:28262505). Acetylation at Lys-87 by EP300/p300 promotes its association with BRD2 and recruitment to chromatin (PubMed:28262505). Deacetylated at Lys-49 and Lys-87 by HDAC1 (PubMed:16285960). Acetylation at Lys-685 by EP300/p300 promotes its homodimerization and activation (PubMed:15653507). Deacetylated at Lys-685 by HDAC3 (PubMed:15653507). Acetylated on lysine residues by CREBBP (PubMed:28065600). Deacetylation by LOXL3 leads to disrupt STAT3 dimerization and inhibit STAT3 transcription activity (PubMed:28065600). Oxidation of lysine residues to allysine on STAT3 preferentially takes place on lysine residues that are acetylated (PubMed:28065600).
Some lysine residues are oxidized to allysine by LOXL3, leading to disrupt STAT3 dimerization and inhibit STAT3 transcription activity (PubMed:28065600). Oxidation of lysine residues to allysine on STAT3 preferentially takes place on lysine residues that are acetylated (PubMed:28065600).
(Microbial infection) Phosphorylated on Tyr-705 in the presence of S.typhimurium SarA.
Belongs to the transcription factor STAT family.
Heart, brain, placenta, lung, liver, skeletal muscle, kidney and pancreas. Expressed in naive CD4(+) T cells as well as T-helper Th17, Th1 and Th2 cells (PubMed:31899195).
