In the C-terminus, can stabilize c-Fos by interfering with degradation, and act as 'priming' phosphorylations that help potentiate phosphorylation with the transactivation domain (Thr325, Thr331, and maybe Thr232)
+
+
====Regulation====
+
+
Ser374 phosphorylated by ERKs in vitro and in vivo Chen 1996
+
+
Ser362 phosphorylated by ERK-dependent RSK, but NOT phosphorylated by ERK directly in vitro (Monje et al. 2003),.
+
+
===Thr325 and Thr331 ===
+
+
From Pellegrino Stork 2006 PMID 17223854
+
+
====Effect====
+
+
within the transactivation domain potentiate AP-1-dependent transcription (Monje et al. 2003)
+
+
====Regulation====
+
+
phosphorylated by ERKs (although less sure about Thr331)
+
+
depends on the the binding of ERKs to an ERK targeting domain, also known as a DEF domain
+
+
===Thr232===
+
+
From Pellegrino Stork 2006 PMID 17223854
+
+
====Effect====
+
+
enhances c-Fos transactivation
+
+
====Regulation====
+
+
Thr232 is phosphorylated by unknown kinase (NOT ERK1/2)
