The Fos protein complex and several Fos-related antigens bind directly or indirectly to a common sequence element that is similar to the consensus binding site for HeLa cell activator protein 1 (AP-1). This element is present in a negative regulatory sequence in the differentiation-sensitive adipocyte gene, aP2; in a transcriptional enhancer for the Gibbon ape leukemia virus; and in a region of the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) long terminal repeat partially characterized as a negative regulatory element. The protein level and binding activity of Fos and Fos-related antigens increase rapidly after calcium ionophore treatment of a CD4+ human lymphoblast cell line, H9. These data suggest that several proteins may associate with the AP-1 binding site. Moreover, temporally regulated control of the level of each protein could represent a mechanism for modulation of these putative mediators of gene expression.

D011518 Proto-Oncogene Proteins Products of proto-oncogenes. Normally they do not have oncogenic or transforming properties, but are involved in the regulation or differentiation of cell growth. They often have protein kinase activity.

D011519 Proto-Oncogenes Normal cellular genes homologous to viral oncogenes. The products of proto-oncogenes are important regulators of biological processes and appear to be involved in the events that serve to maintain the ordered procession through the cell cycle. Proto-oncogenes have names of the form c-onc. Proto-Oncogene,Proto Oncogene,Proto Oncogenes

D012091 Repetitive Sequences, Nucleic Acid Sequences of DNA or RNA that occur in multiple copies. There are several types: INTERSPERSED REPETITIVE SEQUENCES are copies of transposable elements (DNA TRANSPOSABLE ELEMENTS or RETROELEMENTS) dispersed throughout the genome. TERMINAL REPEAT SEQUENCES flank both ends of another sequence, for example, the long terminal repeats (LTRs) on RETROVIRUSES. Variations may be direct repeats, those occurring in the same direction, or inverted repeats, those opposite to each other in direction. TANDEM REPEAT SEQUENCES are copies which lie adjacent to each other, direct or inverted (INVERTED REPEAT SEQUENCES).

D004247 DNA A deoxyribonucleotide polymer that is the primary genetic material of all cells. Eukaryotic and prokaryotic organisms normally contain DNA in a double-stranded state, yet several important biological processes transiently involve single-stranded regions. DNA, which consists of a polysugar-phosphate backbone possessing projections of purines (adenine and guanine) and pyrimidines (thymine and cytosine), forms a double helix that is held together by hydrogen bonds between these purines and pyrimidines (adenine to thymine and guanine to cytosine).
