In an oncology course I took a while back, we were told (anecdotally) that that name jun came from Japanese for seventeen, "juunana," courtesy of a Japanese graduate student who isolated the protein from avian sarcoma virus 17. There's enough apocryphal molecular biology naming attributions out there that I'm hesitant to add this. Can anyone confirm it? - J. Hengenius (talk) 15:18, 4 June 2008 (UTC)
