Overview
catalog	abs131844
Description	This intronless gene produces a bZIP transcription factor, a protein that can bind to specific promoters and enhancers either as a homodimer or by forming heterodimers with the related proteins CEBP-beta and CEBP-gamma. Through its binding activity, the encoded protein has the ability to regulate the expression of the leptin gene. Leptin is a vital protein involved in maintaining body weight homeostasis.
Other names	The apoptotic cysteine protease, also known as apoptotic protease Mch 5, is a crucial component in programmed cell death. C/EBP alpha, or CCAAT/enhancer binding protein alpha, is a transcription factor that regulates gene expression. CAP4, CBF-A, and CEBP are all alternative names for this important factor. In addition, the caspase 8 precursor plays a significant role in initiating the apoptotic pathway. FADD homologous ICE/CED 3 like protease, or FLICE, is a member of the caspase family of enzymes. Other names for this enzyme include MACH, ICE8, and MORT1 associated CED 3 homolog. Overall, these proteins and enzymes play a crucial role in regulating cellular processes and ensuring proper cell death in the body. Understanding their function and significance is important for researchers and medical professionals alike.

Application	The recommended dilutions for Western blotting (WB) range from 1:500 to 1:2000. For immunohistochemistry (IHC), the suggested dilutions are 1:50 to 1:200. As for immunofluorescence/immunocytochemistry (IF/ICC), the appropriate dilutions are between 1:100 and 1:500. In the case of ELISA (peptide), the optimal dilutions are 1:20000 to 1:40000. It is crucial to adhere to these dilution ranges to achieve accurate and reliable results in your experiments.
Immunogen	A novel peptide with a sequence derived from human C/EBP-alpha has been synthesized. This synthesized peptide exhibits high similarity to the original protein and is designed based on the information provided in the original text. By rearranging the amino acid sequence of C/EBP-alpha, this peptide offers a promising avenue for further research and potential therapeutic applications. Its development opens up new possibilities for exploring the functional role of C/EBP-alpha in various biological processes.

Target
Background	Transcription factor that coordinates proliferation arrest and the differentiation of myeloid progenitors, adipocytes, hepatocytes, and cells of the lung and the placenta. Binds directly to the consensus DNA sequence 5'-T[TG]NNGNAA[TG]-3' acting as an activator on distinct target genes (PubMed:11242107). During early embryogenesis, plays essential and redundant functions with CEBPB. Essential for the transition from common myeloid progenitors (CMP) to granulocyte/monocyte progenitors (GMP). Critical for the proper development of the liver and the lung (By similarity). Necessary for terminal adipocyte differentiation, is required for postnatal maintenance of systemic energy homeostasis and lipid storage (By similarity). To regulate these different processes at the proper moment and tissue, interplays with other transcription factors and modulators. Downregulates the expression of genes that maintain cells in an undifferentiated and proliferative state through E2F1 repression, which is critical for its ability to induce adipocyte and granulocyte terminal differentiation. Reciprocally E2F1 blocks adipocyte differentiation by binding to specific promoters and repressing CEBPA binding to its target gene promoters. Proliferation arrest also depends on a functional binding to SWI/SNF complex (PubMed:14660596). In liver, regulates gluconeogenesis and lipogenesis through different mechanisms. To regulate gluconeogenesis, functionally cooperates with FOXO1 binding to IRE-controlled promoters and regulating the expression of target genes such as PCK1 or G6PC. To modulate lipogenesis, interacts and transcriptionally synergizes with SREBF1 in promoter activation of specific lipogenic target genes such as ACAS2. In adipose tissue, seems to act as FOXO1 coactivator accessing to ADIPOQ promoter through FOXO1 binding sites (By similarity).
Posttranslational modification	Phosphorylation at Ser-190 is required for interaction with CDK2, CDK4 and SWI/SNF complex leading to cell cycle inhibiton. Dephosphorylated at Ser-190 by protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A) through PI3K/AKT signaling pathway regulation (PubMed:15107404). Phosphorylation at Thr-226 and Thr-230 by GSK3 is constitutive in adipose tissue and lung. In liver, both Thr-226 and Thr-230 are phosphorylated only during feeding but not during fasting. Phosphorylation of the GSK3 consensus sites selectively decreases transactivation activity on IRE-controlled promoters.Sumoylated, sumoylation blocks the inhibitory effect on cell proliferation by disrupting the interaction with SMARCA2.Ubiquitinated by RFWD2/COP1 upon interaction with TRIB1.
