CCAAT Enhancer Binding Protein Epsilon Definition

C/EBP epsilon is a CCAAT enhancer-binding protein and bZIP transcription factor uniquely expressed in, and essential for differentiation of, granulocytic progenitor cells. C/EBP epsilon forms homo- or heterodimers with other family members and expression is enhanced by retinoids. Four isoforms are expressed from different promoters and an alternate start codon. (from OMIM 600749 and NCI)
