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.

History note

  • 92; was PROTO-ONCOGENE PROTEIN FOS (NM) 1985-91; FOS B PROTEIN was FOS B PROTEIN (NM) 1990-91
