C/EBP α regulates gene expression in a variety of tissues including liver, adipose, lung and intestine. C/EBP α uses a bipartite structural motif to bind DNA. Two protein chains dimerize through a set of amphipathic α helices termed the leucine zipper. Highly basic polypeptide regions emerge from the zipper to form a linked set of DNA contact surfaces. C/EBP α appears to function exclusively in terminally-differentiated, growth-arrested cells. Additional family members include C/EBP β, C/EBP γ, C/EBP δ and C/EBP ε, all of which exhibit similar DNA-binding specificities and affinities to C/EBP α. Furthermore, C/EBP β and C/EBP δ readily form heterodimers both with each other as well as with C/EBP α.
