Summary: Enables DNA-binding transcription factor activity; double-stranded DNA binding activity; and sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Involved in several processes, including response to 4-nitroquinoline N-oxide; response to corticosterone; and response to progesterone. Predicted to be located in nucleoplasm. Predicted to be part of transcription factor AP-1 complex. Biomarker of renal carcinoma. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma and melanoma. Orthologous to human JUNB (JunB proto-oncogene, AP-1 transcription factor subunit). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
