Description
CEBPG, also known as CEBP gamma, is a transcription factor which belongs to the CEBP family. Members of this family regulate viral and cellular CCAAT/enhancer element-mediated transcription. CEBP proteins contain the bZIP region, which is characterized by two motifs in the C-terminal half of the protein: a basic region involved in DNA binding and a leucine zipper motif involved in dimerization. CEBPG binds to the enhancer element PRE-I of the IL-4 gene. It Might change the DNA-binding specificity of other transcription factors and recruit them to unusual DNA sites
