Function | Heterodimerizes with proteins of the JUN family to form an AP-1 transcription factor complex, thereby enhancing their DNA binding activity to gene promoters containing an AP-1 consensus sequence 5'- TGA[GC]TCA-3' and enhancing their transcriptional activity (PubMed:12618758, PubMed:28981703). As part of the AP-1 complex, facilitates enhancer selection together with cell-type-specific transcription factors by collaboratively binding to nucleosomal enhancers and recruiting the SWI/SNF (BAF) chromatin remodeling complex to establish accessible chromatin (By similarity). Together with JUN, plays a role in activation-induced cell death of T cells by binding to the AP-1 promoter site of FASLG/CD95L, and inducing its transcription in response to activation of the TCR/CD3 signaling pathway (PubMed:12618758). Exhibits transactivation activity in vitro (By similarity). Involved in the display of nurturing behavior towards newborns (By similarity). May play a role in neurogenesis in the hippocampus and in learning and memory-related tasks by regulating the expression of various genes involved in neurogenesis, depression and epilepsy (By similarity). Implicated in behavioral responses related to morphine reward and spatial memory (By similarity). |

Background
FOSB, FBJ murine osteosarcoma viral oncogene homolog B, is a protein that, in humans, is encoded by the FOSB gene. FOSB is a member of Fos gene family which consists of 4 members: FOS, FOSB, FOSL1, and FOSL2. The FOS proteins have been implicated as regulators of cell proliferation, differentiation, and transformation. The FOSB gene is mapped to 19q13.32. Delta FOSB is a truncated splice variant of FOSB. Delta FosB has been implicated in the development of drug addiction and control of the reward system in the brain, and is linked to changes in a number of other gene products such as CREB and sirtuins. Delta FosB also regulates the commitment of mesenchymal precursor cells to the adipocyte or osteoblast lineage.
