    Background
    JunD is the most stable and least homologous AP-1 family bZIP transcription factor. It contains N-terminal transactivation domains A1 and A2 with JNK/SAPK phospho-acceptor sites (Ser69, Thr89, Thr91) that regulate activity in response to stress and growth factors. The protein has a divergent transrepression δ domain that enables anti-proliferative dominance, and a C-terminal bZIP module consisting of a basic region that inserts into the TGAGTCA TRE major groove and a leucine zipper that forms Y-shaped α-helical dimers with FosB, ATF2, or CREB. JunD:Fos heterodimers can displace c-Jun from proliferative TREs, repressing genes like cyclin D1 and p16^INK4a in Ras-transformed cells via δ domain steric occlusion, while also activating antioxidant and DNA repair/apoptosis genes such as VEGF and GADD45α/γ. The intronless junD gene allows rapid production of the ΔJunD splice variant, which lacks A1 and is less efficiently phosphorylated by JNK, resulting in weaker activation. JunD binds CREB sites in its own promoter to repress ZO-1 transcription and translation, destabilizing mRNA via 3'UTR-TIAR interaction and weakening epithelial barrier integrity. JunD knockout mice are viable but exhibit cardiomyocyte hypertrophy from derepressed IGF-I/ERK, stunted long-bone growth due to VEGF/FGF deficits, and infertility. Somatic amplification of JunD drives androgen-independent prostate cancer through AR crosstalk and restrains senescence in fibroblasts. Knockdown of JunD induces GADD45-mediated apoptosis and reduces prostate cancer xenograft growth.
