CEBPZ Gene

CCAAT/enhancer binding protein (C/EBP), zeta

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]

CEBPB Gene

This intronless gene encodes a transcription factor that contains a basic leucine zipper (bZIP) domain. The encoded protein functions as a homodimer but can also form heterodimers with CCAAT/enhancer-binding proteins alpha, delta, and gamma. Activity of this protein is important in the regulation of genes involved in immune and inflammatory responses, among other processes. The use of alternative in-frame AUG start codons results in multiple protein isoforms, each with distinct biological functions. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2013]

Activity of this protein can modulate the expression of genes involved in cell cycle regulation as well as in body weight homeostasis. Mutation of this gene is associated with acute myeloid leukemia. The use of alternative in-frame non-AUG (GUG) and AUG start codons results in protein isoforms with different lengths.

HIVEP2 Gene

human immunodeficiency virus type I enhancer binding protein 2

This gene encodes a member of a family of closely related, large, zinc finger-containing transcription factors. The encoded protein regulates transcription by binding to regulatory regions of various cellular and viral genes that maybe involved in growth, development and metastasis. The protein contains the ZAS domain comprised of two widely separated regions of zinc finger motifs, a stretch of highly acidic amino acids and a serine/threonine-rich sequence.

HIVEP3 Gene

human immunodeficiency virus type I enhancer binding protein 3

This gene encodes a member of the human immunodeficiency virus type 1 enhancer-binding protein family. Members of this protein family contain multiple zinc finger and acid-rich (ZAS) domains and serine-threonine rich regions. This protein acts as a transcription factor and is able to regulate nuclear factor kappaB-mediated transcription by binding the kappaB motif in target genes. This protein also binds the recombination signal sequence that flanks the V, D, and J regions of immunoglobulin and T-cell receptors. Alternate splicing results in both coding and non-coding transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2011]

IKBKGP1 Gene

inhibitor of kappa light polypeptide gene enhancer in B-cells, kinase gamma pseudogene 1

RUBCNL Gene

rubicon like autophagy enhancer

This gene encodes a cysteine-rich protein that contains a putative zinc-RING and/or ribbon domain. The encoded protein is related to Run domain Beclin-1-interacting and cysteine-rich domain-containing protein, which plays a role in endocytic trafficking and autophagy. In cervical cancer cell lines, this gene is expressed at low levels and may function as a tumor suppressor. Promoter hypermethylation of this gene is observed in cervical cancer cell lines and tissue derived from human patients. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2017]

STIMATE Gene

STIM activating enhancer

Enables calcium channel regulator activity. Involved in activation of store-operated calcium channel activity and store-operated calcium entry. Located in cortical endoplasmic reticulum; endoplasmic reticulum membrane; and endoplasmic reticulum-plasma membrane contact site. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Mar 2025]

DELE1 Gene

DAP3 binding cell death enhancer 1

Enables protein kinase binding activity and protein serine/threonine kinase activator activity. Involved in several processes, including HRI-mediated signaling; positive regulation of mitophagy; and response to iron ion starvation. Located in mitochondrial inner membrane. Is active in cytosol and mitochondrial outer membrane. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Mar 2025]

CARMN Gene

Predicted to be involved in regulation of gene expression. Predicted to be part of RISC complex. Biomarker of atherosclerosis. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Mar 2025]

LOC111674475 Gene

CFTR intron 11 enhancer

This region represents a DNase I hypersensitive site, DHS11, that corresponds to an intronic intestinal enhancer of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene. This enhancer can cooperate with other regulatory elements at the CFTR locus, including the DHS1, DHS10a,b and DHS+15.6kb elements, and it physically interacts with the CFTR promoter and other regulatory elements in a larger topologically associating domain (TAD). Activity of this enhancer is positively regulated by binding of HNF1 homeobox, caudal-type homeobox, and forkhead box transcription factors. Functionally significant polymorphisms have been identified within this enhancer. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2018]
