Description: c-jun is the normal cellular homologue of the transforming gene of avian sarcoma virus 17 and a member of the early-response gene family. The c-jun oncogene encodes a nuclear protein, p39, which is a major component of the transcription factor AP1 and interacts with the c-fos oncogene product forming a transacting heterodimer. c-jun oncoprotein plays an important role in the regulation of gene expression and signal transduction processes. Alterations in c-jun expression may affect the transcriptional initiation of specific target genes and as a consequence may affect normal cell growth and function.
