[主题词] Proto-Oncogene Proteins c-fos
[英文释义] 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.
