The c-Myc [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oncogene oncogene] encodes a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transcription_factor transcription factor], c-Myc protein, which is involved in the regulation of the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cell_cycle cell cycle]. C-Myc belongs to the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C-myc Myc] family of proteins including B-Myc, L-Myc, N-Myc, and s-Myc. c-Myc is a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Basic_helix-loop-helix_leucine_zipper_transcription_factors b-HLH-LZ] (basic helix-loop-helix-leucine zipper) protein that must form a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heterodimer heterodimer] with another b-HLH-LZ protein, [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MAX_(gene) Max], in order to bind DNA and activate [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transcription_(genetics) transcription]. | The c-Myc [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oncogene oncogene] encodes a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transcription_factor transcription factor], c-Myc protein, which is involved in the regulation of the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cell_cycle cell cycle].
