| Modification Notes | Members of the Maf family of basic region/leucine zipper (bZIP) transcription factors affect transcription in either a positive or negative fashion, depending on their particular protein partner and the context of the target promoter. v-Maf (the avian viral homolog of Maf, also designated c-Maf, for cell, or Maf2) and the closely related family members Neural retina leucine zipper (Nrl), L-Maf, and Krml1/MafB (Maf-1) all bind to T-MARE sites and have been implicated in a wide variety of developmental and physiologic roles. The three small Maf family proteins (MafF, MafG, and MafK) are components of NF-E2 that function as heterodimers with the large tissue-restricted subunit of NF-E2 called p45, and they are implicated in the transcriptional regulation of many erythroid-specific genes. MafB is expressed in a wide variety of tissues and encodes a protein containing a typical bZip motif in its carboxy-terminal region. As a transcriptional activator, MafB plays a pivotal role in regulating lineage-specific gene expression during hematopoiesis by repressing Ets-1-mediated transcription of key erythroid-specific genes in myeloid cells. c-Maf interacts with the c-Myb DNA binding domain and forms Myb-Maf complexes, which inturn mediate the cooperative interactions between c-Myb and Ets-1 during early myeloid cell differentiation. |
