Description
CCAAT/enhancer-binding proteins (C/EBP) consist of a family of transcription factors that play an important role in regulating the balance between cell growth & differentiation. The various isoforms of C/EBP (alpha, beta, gamma, delta, epsilon, zeta) exhibit similar DNA-binding specificities and contain a leucine zipper dimerization domain (1). C/EBP alpha (2) can form heterodimers with related protein C/EBP beta and gamma. C/EBP alpha directly interacts with CDK2and CDK4 and arrests cell proliferation by inhibiting these kinases (3). C/EBP alpha has been shown to bind to the promoter and modulate the expression of leptin, a protein that plays an important role in body weight homeostasis (4). C/EBP alpha also has prominent antimitotic activity and may play a role of a tumor suppressor.
