MeSH definition : Retrovirus-associated DNA sequences (jun) originally isolated from the avian sarcoma
virus 17 (ASV 17). The proto-oncogene jun (c-jun) codes for a nuclear protein which
is involved in growth-related transcriptional control. Insertion of c-jun into ASV-17
or the constitutive expression of the c-jun protein produces tumorgenicity. The human
c-jun gene is located at 1p31-32 on the short arm of chromosome 1.;
