By means of low-stringency cross-species hybridization to Southern DNA blots, human c-jun
sequences were used to identify a unique Drosophila melanogaster locus (Djun). The …

In an extensive screen of a cDNA library prepared from serum‐stimulated mouse NIH 3T3
cells, we identified three distinct jun‐related clones. Two of them were carrying c‐jun and …

The GCN4 gene encodes a positive effector of amino acid biosynthetic genes in
Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Genetic analysis has suggested that GCN4 is regulated by a …

The jun oncogene of ASV17 is expressed as a 65 kd protein (p65 gag-jun) that contains
partial gag sequences at its amino terminus fused to jun sequences that make up the …

The AP-1 transcriptional activating complex, made up of Jun and Fos protein, is involved in
controlling many cellular processes such as cell proliferation, differentiation and …

Yeast GCN4 protein binds specifically to the promoters of amino acid biosynthetic genes
and coordinately induces their transcription. Serially deleted GCN4 and hybrid LexA-GCN4 …

DNA binding protein families have been identified that contain a leucine zipper dimerization
motif preceded by a conserved, highly basic domain involved in direct specific interaction …

JunB differs considerably from c-Jun in its ability to activate AP-1-responsive genes and
induce oncogenic transformation. We demonstrate that the decreased ability of JunB to …

While the ability of the retroviral oncogene V-jun to transform chicken cells led to its
discovery, the oncogenic potential of its cellular homologue, c-jun, which encodes a …

Abstract A STRUCTURAL motif for DNA-binding proteins, the" leucine zipper", has been
proposed for the jun, fos and myc gene products, the yeast transcriptional activator GCN4 …
