CCAAT/Enhancer-binding Proteins (C/EBP) β and δ Activate Osteocalcin Gene Transcription and Synergize with Runx2 at the C/EBP Element to Regulate Bone-specific Expression

Abstract excerpt

CCAAT/enhancer-binding proteins (C/EBP) are critical determinants for cellular differentiation and cell type-specific gene expression. Their functional roles in osteoblast development have not been determined. We addressed a key component of the mechanisms by which C/EBP factors regulate transcription of a tissue-specific gene during osteoblast differentiation. Expression of both C/EBPbeta and C/EBPdelta...
