Previously we have shown that a malignant mouse keratinocyte cell line, 10Gy5, has elevated AP-1 transactivation and reduced JunB protein levels compared to its parental benign cell line, 308, and that the tumorigenicity in the 10Gy5 cells could be blocked by a dominant negative c-Jun mutant protein. We wished to determine whether the change in JunB protein levels could account for the elevated AP-1 activity and whether re-expression of JunB in malignant 10Gy5 cells altered their proliferative capacity.
