CCAAT/enhancer-binding proteins (C/EBPs) are a family of transcription factors critical for cellular differentiation, terminal functions and inflammatory response (1).
Six members of the family have been characterized (C/EBPalpha, -delta, -gamma, -epsilon and -zeta) and are distributed in a variety of tissues (1).
There are two forms of C/EBPb, the 38kD liver activating protein (LAP) and the 20kD liver inhibitory protein (LIP) which may be products of alternative translation.
The 38kD LAP protein is a transcriptional activator while LIP may act as an inhibitor of C/EBPb transcriptional activity (2).
Phosphorylation of C/EBPb at distinct sites stimulates its transcriptional activity (3-5).
Phosphorylation at Ser105 of rat C/EBPb, a unique site only present in the rat sequence, seems essential for rat C/EBPb activation (6).
