Abstract excerpt
Phosphorylation of C/EBPalpha can either lead to granulocytic differentiation or a block in granulopoiesis. This dichotomy in effect is dependent on the upstream signaling pathway and the phosphorylation site in C/EBPalpha. Ras signaling induced phosphorylation of S248 residue of C/EBPalpha is known to enhance granulocytic differentiation. In this study, using beta-estradiol inducible stable cell lines we show...
