Anti-Fos B/FOSB Antibody , Cy3 Conjugate

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.

Anticoagulant plasma protein; it is a cofactor to activated protein C in the degradation of coagulation factors Va and VIIIa. It helps to prevent coagulation and stimulating fibrinolysis.
