ID:CEBPE_HUMAN DESCRIPTION: RecName: Full=CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein epsilon; Short=C/EBP epsilon; FUNCTION: C/EBP are DNA-binding proteins that recognize two different motifs: the CCAAT homology common to many promoters and the enhanced core homology common to many enhancers. SUBUNIT: Binds DNA as a dimer and can form stable heterodimers with C/EBP delta. SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Nucleus. TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Strongest expression occurs in promyelocyte and late-myeloblast-like cell lines. PTM: Phosphorylated. SIMILARITY: Belongs to the bZIP family. C/EBP subfamily. SIMILARITY: Contains 1 bZIP (basic-leucine zipper) domain. SEQUENCE CAUTION: Sequence=AAC51130.1; Type=Frameshift; Positions=4; WEB RESOURCE: Name=CEBPEbase; Note=CEBPE mutation db; URL="http://bioinf.uta.fi/CEBPEbase/";
The RNAfold program from the Vienna RNA Package is used to perform the secondary structure predictions and folding calculations. The estimated folding energy is in kcal/mol. The more negative the energy, the more secondary structure the RNA is likely to have.

The pictures above may be empty if there is no ModBase structure for the protein. The ModBase structure frequently covers just a fragment of the protein. You may be asked to log onto ModBase the first time you click on the pictures. It is simplest after logging in to just click on the picture again to get to the specific info on that model.
Orthologous Genes in Other Species
Orthologies between human, mouse, and rat are computed by taking the best BLASTP hit, and filtering out non-syntenic hits. For more distant species reciprocal-best BLASTP hits are used. Note that the absence of an ortholog in the table below may reflect incomplete annotations in the other species rather than a true absence of the orthologous gene.
