CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein delta is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CEBPD gene.
CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein delta is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CEBPD gene. ==Functions== CEBPD is involved in regulation of apoptosis and cell proliferation. It probably acts as tumor suppressor. One study in mice showed that CEBPD prevents development of tubular injury and tubulointerstitial fibrogenesis during the progression of chronic obstructive nephropathy. Function of CEBPD gene can be effectively examined by siRNA knockdown based on an independent validation.
