Differential Control of the CCAAT/Enhancer-binding Protein β (C/EBPβ) Products Liver-enriched Transcriptional Activating Protein (LAP) and Liver-enriched Transcriptional Inhibitory Protein (LIP) and the Regulation of Gene Expression during the Response to Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress

Abstract excerpt

The accumulation of unfolded proteins in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) triggers a stress response program that protects cells early in the response and can lead to apoptosis during prolonged stress. The basic leucine zipper transcription factor, CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein beta (C/EBPbeta), is one of the genes with increased expression during ER stress. Translation of the C/EBPbeta mRNA from different...
