| Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
| description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables DNA-binding transcription activator activity, RNA polymerase II-specific; RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity; and identical protein binding activity. Involved in positive regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including fat cell differentiation; positive regulation of osteoblast differentiation; and regulation of DNA-templated transcription. Located in nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; early embryo; genitourinary system; integumental system; and lung. Orthologous to human CEBPD (CCAAT enhancer binding protein delta). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a knock-out allele are viable and healthy and perform normally on several behavioral tasks, but display enhanced contextual fear conditioning. Mice homozygous for a second knock-out allele exhibit nearly normal or only slightly impaired adipocyte differentiation. [provided by MGI curators] |
