Target data Key pioneer transcription factor of B-cell specification and commitment (PubMed : 27807034). Recognizes variations of the palindromic sequence 5'-ATTCCCNNGGGAATT-3'. Operates in a transcription factor network to activate B-cell-specific genes and repress genes associated with alternative cell fates. For instance, positively regulates many B-cell specific genes including BCR or CD40 while repressing genes that direct cells into alternative lineages, including GATA3 and TCF7 for the T-cell lineage. In addition to its role during lymphopoiesis, controls the thermogenic gene program in adipocytes during development and in response to environmental cold (By similarity).. (Microbial infection) Acts as a chromatin anchor for Epstein-Barr virus EBNA2 to mediate the assembly of EBNA2 chromatin complexes in B-cells (PubMed : 28968461). In addition, binds to the viral LMP1 proximal promoter and promotes its expression during latency (PubMed : 26819314). See full target information EBF1
