Abstract excerpt
The basic leucine zipper transcription factor CCAAT/enhancer binding protein-beta (C/EBPbeta) is expressed in many cell types, including keratinocytes. C/EBPbeta activity can be increased by phosphorylation through pathways stimulated by oncogenic Ras, although the biological implications of Ras-C/EBPbeta signaling are not currently understood. We report here that C/EBPbeta-nullizygous mice are completely...
