| ncRNA Symbol: | FOSL2 | | Full Name: | FOS like 2, AP-1 transcription factor subunit | | Category: | mRNA | | Synonyms: | FRA2 | | Chromosome: | chr2 | | Strand: | + | | Coordinate: | | Start Site(bp): | 28392448 | End Site(bp): | 28417312 | | | Gene Summary: | The Fos gene family consists of 4 members: FOS, FOSB, FOSL1, and FOSL2. These genes encode leucine zipper proteins that can dimerize with proteins of the JUN family, thereby forming the transcription factor complex AP-1. As such, the FOS proteins have been implicated as regulators of cell proliferation, differentiation, and transformation. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2014] | | External Links: | |
