JUND, Official Symbol JUNDprovided by HGNC Official Full Name JunD proto-oncogene, AP-1 transcription factor subunitprovided by HGNC Primary source HGNC:HGNC:6206 See related Ensembl:ENSG00000130522 MIM:165162; AllianceGenome:HGNC:6206 Gene type protein coding RefSeq status REVIEWED Organism Homo sapiens Lineage Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi; Mammalia; Eutheria; Euarchontoglires; Primates; Haplorrhini; Catarrhini; Hominidae; Homo Also known as AP-1 Summary The protein encoded by this intronless gene is a member of the JUN family, and a functional component of the AP1 transcription factor complex. This protein has been proposed to protect cells from p53-dependent senescence and apoptosis. Alternative translation initiation site usage results in the production of different isoforms (PMID:12105216). [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2013] Orthologs mouse all
