FOSB - FosB proto-oncogene, AP-1 transcription factor subunit

Function

Isoform 11Exhibits lower transactivation activity than isoform 1 in vitro (By similarity). The heterodimer with JUN does not display any transcriptional activity, and may thereby act as an transcriptional inhibitor (By similarity). May be involved in the regulation of neurogenesis in the hippocampus (By similarity). May play a role in synaptic modifications in nucleus accumbens medium spiny neurons and thereby play a role in adaptive and pathological reward-dependent learning, including maladaptive responses involved in drug addiction (By similarity). Seems to be more stably expressed with a half-life of ~9.5 hours in cell culture as compared to 1.5 hours half-life of isoform 1 (By similarity).
