CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein-gamma; C/EBP gamma (CEBPG)

Function

• transcription factor & DNA-binding protein
• binds to positive regulatory element-1 (PRE-1) of the IL-4 gene
• might change the DNA-binding specificity of other transcription factors & recruit them to unusual DNA sites
• binds DNA as a dimer & can form stable heterodimers with C/EBP alpha & C/EBP beta & with Fos protein

Structure

• belongs to the bZIP family, C/EBP subfamily
• contains 1 bZIP domain

Compartment

nucleus

More general terms

• CCAAT/enhancer binding protein (C/EBP, CBF, NF-Y protein)
