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 (1). c-Maf (Maf-2) 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 are implicated in a wide variety of developmental and physiologic roles (2,3). The three small Maf family proteins MafF, MafG, and MafK are components of NF-E2 which function as heterodimers with the large tissue-restricted subunit of NF-E2 called p45, and furthermore are implicated in the transcriptional regulation of many erythroid-specific genes (4). MafG is ubiquitously expressed, with highest expression in the VMS, heart and skeletal muscle; its expression is induced in response to stress (5,6). MafK, also designated NF-E2 p18, is primarily expressed during development in mesenchymal and hematopoietic cells and neurons. MafK heterodimerizes with NF-E2 and various CNC proteins (7). MafF is most abundantly expressed in the lung and is thought to compensate for loss of function mutations in MafG and MafK (8).
