CEBPZ - CCAAT enhancer binding protein zeta Gene
Also Known as CBF; CBF2; NOC1; HSP-CBF
Species: Homo sapiens
About CEBPZ
This gene has 3 transcripts (splice variants) and 210 orthologues. Ubiquitous expression in testis (RPKM 27.1), adrenal (RPKM 18.8) and 25 other tissues.
Summary
This gene belongs to the CBF/Mak21 family. The encoded protein plays a role in cellular response to environmental stimuli through a transcriptional process that involves heat shock factors, conserved DNA elements (heat shock elements or HSEs) and CCAAT boxes. The protein acts as a DNA-binding transcriptional activator and regulates the heat-shock protein 70 (HSP70) promoter in a CCAAT-dependent manner. The protein is also involved in cell growth and differentiation, particularly, hematopoietic differentiation. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2020]
