The c-Jun protein is a member of transcription factors which consist of a basic region leucine zipper region <ref name="one"> PMID:8662824 </ref>.

Induction of apoptosis by the transcription factor c-Jun. EMO Journal. Vol.16;7. 1695-1709 </ref>. All these leucine zipper factors bind to DNA in one of two states: homo or heterodimers <ref name="two"> PMID:8662824 </ref>.

The structure of c-Jun is comprised of a leucine zipper as previously stated. This dimerization motif may be in one of two classes, both of which are required for DNA-binding transcription factors; the basic-domain leucine zipper proteins (bZIP) and the basic helix loop-helix-leucine zipper proteins(bHLH-ZIP) <ref name="two"> A Junius, F.K., Mackay, J.P., Bubb, W.A., Jensen, S.A., Weiss, A.S., King, G.F. 2006.

This is formed by residues at the a and d positions in each of the two monomers, whereby they create hydrophobic centers which conform to the "knobs into holes" model by Crick. <ref name="two" />. Amino acids at these a and d positions are each surrounded by 4 additional residues from adjacent a-helix monomer <ref name="two" />.
