Summary
This intronless gene encodes a member of the transcription factor family whose members contain a basic leucine-zipper domain. The encoded protein functions as a homodimer but can also form heterodimers with CCAAT/enhancer-binding proteins alpha, delta, and gamma. The encoded protein plays important roles in several cellular processes and in various diseases, including regulating cell proliferation, differentiation, apoptosis and neuroinflammation, and being involved in brain injury and inflammatory progression. The use of alternative in-frame AUG start codons results in multiple protein isoforms, each with different cellular localizations and distinct biological functions. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2014]

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.

  1. NM_001301715.1NP_001288644.1  CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein beta isoform LAP2

    See identical proteins and their annotated locations for NP_001288644.1

    Status: REVIEWED

    Description
    Transcript Variant: This variant (1) encodes multiple isoforms through the use of alternative translation initiation codons. The isoform [LAP2, also known as LAP (liver activating protein), p34 or CRP2 (c/EBP-related protein 2)] represented in this RefSeq results from translation initiation at a downstream AUG start codon. Isoform LAP2 has a shorter N-terminus, compared to isoform LAP1.

The isoform [LIP (liver inhibitory protein) or p20] represented in this RefSeq results from translation initiation at a downstream AUG start codon. Isoform LIP has a shorter N-terminus, compared to isoform LAP1.

    Description
    Transcript Variant: This variant (1) encodes multiple isoforms through the use of alternative translation initiation codons. The isoform (LAP1, also known as LAP* or p38) represented in this RefSeq results from translation initiation at the 5' most AUG start codon and is the longest isoform.
