MeSH definition : A class of proteins that were originally identified by their ability to bind the DNA
sequence CCAAT. The typical CCAAT-enhancer binding protein forms dimers and consists
of an activation domain, a DNA-binding basic region, and a leucine-rich dimerization
domain (LEUCINE ZIPPERS). CCAAT-BINDING FACTOR is structurally distinct type of CCAAT-enhancer
binding protein consisting of a trimer of three different subunits.;
