Abstract excerpt
C/EBPbeta is an intrinsically repressed transcription factor that regulates genes involved in differentiation, proliferation, tumorigenesis, and apoptosis. C/EBPbeta acts as a repressor that is turned into an activator by the Ras oncoprotein through phosphorylation of a MAPK site. C/EBPbeta activation is accompanied by a conformational change. Active and repressive C/EBPbeta interacts with multisubunit Mediator...
