    basic FUNCTION
  • myelocyte differentiation, premyelocyte to myelocyte transition
  • may be playing an essential role for terminal differentiation and functional maturation of committed granulocyte progenitor cells
  • essential and sufficient for the expression of a particular subset of neutrophil secondary granule genes
  • critical transcription factor in TNFalpha-induced up-regulation of GPX4 expression (Hattori 2007)
  • important regulator of cytokine expression in human neutrophils (Cloutier 2009)
  • required for the terminal differentiation of neutrophils and eosinophils (Bedi 2009)
  • CELLULAR PROCESS nucleotide, transcription
