Human Gene CEBPD (ENST00000408965.4) from GENCODE V44
Description: Homo sapiens CCAAT enhancer binding protein delta (CEBPD), mRNA. (from RefSeq NM_005195) RefSeq Summary (NM_005195): The protein encoded by this intronless gene is a bZIP transcription factor which can bind as a homodimer to certain DNA regulatory regions. It can also form heterodimers with the related protein CEBP-alpha. The encoded protein is important in the regulation of genes involved in immune and inflammatory responses, and may be involved in the regulation of genes associated with activation and/or differentiation of macrophages. The cytogenetic location of this locus has been reported as both 8p11 and 8q11. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2010]. Gencode Transcript: ENST00000408965.4 Gencode Gene: ENSG00000221869.5 Transcript (Including UTRs) Position: hg38 chr8:47,736,913-47,738,164 Size: 1,252 Total Exon Count: 1 Strand: - Coding Region Position: hg38 chr8:47,737,311-47,738,120 Size: 810 Coding Exon Count: 1
ID:CEBPD_HUMAN DESCRIPTION: RecName: Full=CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein delta; Short=C/EBP delta; AltName: Full=Nuclear factor NF-IL6-beta; Short=NF-IL6-beta; FUNCTION: C/EBP is a DNA-binding protein that recognizes two different motifs: the CCAAT homology common to many promoters and the enhanced core homology common to many enhancers. Important transcriptional activator in the regulation of genes involved in immune and inflammatory responses, may play an important role in the regulation of the several genes associated with activation and/or differentiation of macrophages. SUBUNIT: Binds DNA as a dimer and can form stable heterodimers with C/EBP alpha. Interacts with SPI1/PU.1. Interacts with PRDM16 (By similarity). SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Nucleus. SIMILARITY: Belongs to the bZIP family. C/EBP subfamily. SIMILARITY: Contains 1 bZIP (basic-leucine zipper) domain.
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.
