Abstract excerpt
The c-fos proto-oncogene, which is the normal homolog of the transforming gene carried by murine osteogenic sarcoma viruses, interacts with the protein product of another proto-oncogene, c-jun, to form a heterodimer that can recognize and bind to a specific sequence of nucleotides in the DNA. The expression of c-fos and c-jun is linked to the proliferation of certain cells and the differentiation of others,...
