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, differentation, and tranformation. 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 criticial 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. Applications: Suitable for use in Immunofluorescence and Western Blot. Not suitable for use in Immunohistochemistry. Other applications not tested. Recommended Dilution: Immunofluorescence (IC): 2.5-5ug/ml Western Blot: 2.5-5ug/ml Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher. Storage and Stability: May be stored at 4 degrees C for short-term only. Aliquot to avoid repeated freezing and thawing. Store at -20 degrees C. Aliquots are stable for 12 months. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap.
