Annotation
/drug eff /‌ultrastruct permitted; not for c-fos 39 ( = C-FOS-ASSOCIATED PROTEIN P39 see PROTO-ONCOGENE PROTEINS C-JUN)
Scope Note
Cellular DNA-binding proteins encoded by the c-fos genes (GENES, FOS). They are involved in growth-related transcriptional control. c-fos combines with c-jun (PROTO-ONCOGENE PROTEINS C-JUN) to form a c-fos/c-jun heterodimer (TRANSCRIPTION FACTOR AP-1) that binds to the TRE (TPA-responsive element) in promoters of certain genes.
