Junb

Enables DNA-binding transcription activator activity, RNA polymerase II-specific and RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Involved in positive regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including decidualization; embryo development; and osteoblast proliferation. Predicted to be located in nucleoplasm. Predicted to be part of transcription factor AP-1 complex. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; central nervous system; genitourinary system; hemolymphoid system; and liver and biliary system. Used to study psoriasis and systemic lupus erythematosus. 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, Jul 2025]

A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in mouse Junb often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
