Gene information for CEBPE (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID1053
Official gene symbolCEBPE
Full nameCCAAT/enhancer binding protein (C/EBP), epsilon
Aliases,C/EBP-epsilon,CRP1,
Gene summaryThe protein encoded by this gene is a bZIP transcription factor which can bind as a homodimer to certain DNA regulatory regions. It can also form heterodimers with the related protein CEBP-delta. The encoded protein may be essential for terminal differentiation and functional maturation of committed granulocyte progenitor cells. Mutations in this gene have been associated with Specific Granule Deficiency, a rare congenital disorder. Multiple variants of this gene have been described, but the full-length nature of only one has been determined. [provided by RefSeq]
