Biological function summary
C-Jun impacts cellular activities by being a significant part of the AP-1 transcription factor complex interacting with other proteins such as Fos. This interaction allows c-Jun to modulate gene expression in response to cellular stimuli. In particular c-Jun influences cell cycle progression and differentiation. Therefore its activity is necessary for physiological and pathological processes. As c-jun's function remains tightly regulated any changes can have wide-ranging effects.
Pathways
C-Jun significantly influences the MAPK/ERK and JNK pathways. These pathways play important roles in cellular responses to stress growth factors and cytokines. Within these pathways c-Jun interacts with proteins such as JNK which phosphorylates c-Jun and enhances its activity. These interactions allow c-Jun to regulate target genes involved in important cellular processes without much delay. Understanding c-Jun's function in these pathways helps elucidate how cells control division survival and apoptosis.
General info
Function
Transcription factor that recognizes and binds to the AP-1 consensus motif 5'-TGA[GC]TCA-3' (PubMed : 10995748, PubMed : 22083952). Heterodimerizes with proteins of the FOS family to form an AP-1 transcription complex, thereby enhancing its DNA binding activity to the AP-1 consensus sequence 5'-TGA[GC]TCA-3' and enhancing its transcriptional activity (By similarity). Together with FOSB, plays a role in activation-induced cell death of T cells by binding to the AP-1 promoter site of FASLG/CD95L, and inducing its transcription in response to activation of the TCR/CD3 signaling pathway (PubMed : 12618758). Promotes activity of NR5A1 when phosphorylated by HIPK3 leading to increased steroidogenic gene expression upon cAMP signaling pathway stimulation (PubMed : 17210646). Involved in activated KRAS-mediated transcriptional activation of USP28 in colorectal cancer (CRC) cells (PubMed : 24623306). Binds to the USP28 promoter in colorectal cancer (CRC) cells (PubMed : 24623306).. (Microbial infection) Upon Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infection, binds to viral BZLF1 Z promoter and activates viral BZLF1 expression.
Sequence similarities
Belongs to the bZIP family. Jun subfamily.
Post-translational modifications
Ubiquitinated by the SCF(FBXW7), leading to its degradation (PubMed:14739463, PubMed:27458189). Ubiquitination takes place following phosphorylation, that promotes interaction with FBXW7 (PubMed:14739463).. Phosphorylated by CaMK4 and PRKDC; phosphorylation enhances the transcriptional activity. Phosphorylated by HIPK3. Phosphorylated by DYRK2 at Ser-243; this primes the protein for subsequent phosphorylation by GSK3B at Thr-239. Phosphorylated at Thr-239, Ser-243 and Ser-249 by GSK3B; phosphorylation reduces its ability to bind DNA. Phosphorylated by PAK2 at Thr-2, Thr-8, Thr-89, Thr-93 and Thr-286 thereby promoting JUN-mediated cell proliferation and transformation. Phosphorylated by PLK3 following hypoxia or UV irradiation, leading to increase DNA-binding activity. Phosphorylated by VRK1 (PubMed:31527692).. Acetylated at Lys-271 by EP300.
