CATEGORY

regulatory , transcription factor

SUBCELLULAR LOCALIZATION	intracellular
	intracellular,nucleus,chromatin/chromosome

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
	cell organization/biogenesis

PHYSIOLOGICAL PROCESS

text	myelopoiesis, hematopoiesis

PATHWAY

INTERACTION

DNA	binds DNA as a dimer
	binding to CCAAT enhancer

RNA

small molecule
