Purified anti-c-Fos Phospho (Ser32) Antibody, c-Fos Phospho, A22009C,BioLegend,631251

The proto-oncogene c-Fos is the human homolog of the retroviral v-Fos oncogene, and is a member of the Fos family of transcription factors. c-Fos forms heterodimers with proteins of the Jun family of transcription factors to form the Activator Protein-1 complex (AP-1). This complex is involved in critical cellular processes such as inflammation, cell proliferation, differentiation, survival, hypoxia, bone development and angiogenesis which suggests c-Fos is an important therapeutic target for cancer, vascular remodeling, acute inflammation and autoimmune diseases.  In addition, increases in c-Fos expression and activation are associated with neuronal activity induced by psychoactive drugs. Expression of c-Fos is rapid and transitory, and phosphorylation at residues Ser32 and Thr232 by Erk5 increases protein stability and nuclear localization.
