Relevance 

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 AP1. As such, the Fos proteins have been implicated as regulators of cell proliferation, differentiation, and transformation. In some cases, expression of the Fos gene has also been associated with apoptotic cell death. The human oncogene c-Fos is homologous to the Finkel-Biskis-Jinkins (FBJ) murine osteosarcoma virus oncogene. Fos was the first transcription factor identified that has a critical function in regulating the development of cells destined to form and maintain the skeleton.

Fos protein is routinely used as a marker of neuronal activation.
