Protein C-ETS2 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the ETS2 gene. [5] [6] The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the ETS family of transcription factors. [5] It has been found to play a key role in the development of inflammatory bowel disease. [7] [8]
ETS2 has been shown to interact with:
ETS2 has been linked to a variety of diseases, including Takayasu's arteritis, inflammatory bowel disease, primary sclerosing cholangitis, and ankylosing spondylitis, all associated with a region on chromosome 21 at 21q22. [13]
Transcription factor Jun is a protein that in humans is encoded by the JUN gene. c-Jun, in combination with protein c-Fos, forms the AP-1 early response transcription factor. It was first identified as the Fos-binding protein p39 and only later rediscovered as the product of the JUN gene. c-jun was the first oncogenic transcription factor discovered. The proto-oncogene c-Jun is the cellular homolog of the viral oncoprotein v-jun. The viral homolog v-jun was discovered in avian sarcoma virus 17 and was named for ju-nana, the Japanese word for 17. The human JUN encodes a protein that is highly similar to the viral protein, which interacts directly with specific target DNA sequences to regulate gene expression. This gene is intronless and is mapped to 1p32-p31, a chromosomal region involved in both translocations and deletions in human malignancies.
Cyclin-dependent kinase 9 or CDK9 is a cyclin-dependent kinase associated with P-TEFb.
Protein C-ets-1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the ETS1 gene. The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the ETS family of transcription factors.
Myb-related protein B is a protein that in humans is encoded by the MYBL2 gene.
Transcription factor jun-B is a protein that, in humans, is encoded by the JUNB gene. Transcription factor jun-B is a transcription factor involved in regulating gene activity following the primary growth factor response. It binds to the DNA sequence 5'-TGA[CG]TCA-3'.
Friend leukemia integration 1 transcription factor (FLI1), also known as transcription factor ERGB, is a protein that in humans is encoded by the FLI1 gene, which is a proto-oncogene.
Transcription factor PU.1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the SPI1 gene.
COP9 constitutive photomorphogenic homolog subunit 5 (Arabidopsis), also known as COPS5 or Csn5, is a gene conserved from humans to Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
Ribosomal protein S6 kinase alpha-2 is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the RPS6KA2 gene.
ERG is an oncogene. ERG is a member of the ETS family of transcription factors. The ERG gene encodes for a protein, also called ERG, that functions as a transcriptional regulator. Genes in the ETS family regulate embryonic development, cell proliferation, differentiation, angiogenesis, inflammation, and apoptosis.
Macrophage-stimulating protein receptor is a protein that in humans is encoded by the MST1R gene. MST1R is also known as RON kinase, named after the French city in which it was discovered. It is related to the c-MET receptor tyrosine kinase.
ETS translocation variant 1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the ETV1 gene.
ETS domain-containing protein Elk-4 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the ELK4 gene.
ETS domain-containing transcription factor ERF is a protein that in humans is encoded by the ERF gene.
Serine/threonine-protein kinase VRK1 is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the VRK1 gene.
ETS domain-containing protein Elk-3 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the ELK3 gene.
Ribosomal protein S6 kinase alpha-4 is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the RPS6KA4 gene.
Serine/threonine-protein kinase PLK2 is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the PLK2 gene.
In the field of molecular biology, the ETSfamily is one of the largest families of transcription factors and is unique to animals. There are 29 genes in humans, 28 in the mouse, 10 in Caenorhabditis elegans and 9 in Drosophila. The founding member of this family was identified as a gene transduced by the leukemia virus, E26. The members of the family have been implicated in the development of different tissues as well as cancer progression.
SAP1A is one of a family of proteins that contains a unique DNA binding domain termed the ETS domain.
