MAFF (gene)
Transcription factor MafF is a bZip Maf transcription factor protein that in humans is encoded by the ''MAFF'' gene. MafF is one of the small Maf proteins, which are basic region and leucine zipper (bZIP)-type transcription factors. The HUGO Gene Nomenclature Committee-approved gene name of ''MAFF'' is “v-maf avian musculoaponeurotic fibrosarcoma oncogene homolog F”. Discovery MafF was first cloned and identified in chicken in 1993 as a member of the small Maf (sMaf) genes. MAFF has been identified in many vertebrates, including humans. There are three functionally redundant sMaf proteins in vertebrates, MafF, MafG, and MafK. Structure MafF has a bZIP structure that consists of a basic region for DNA binding and a leucine zipper structure for dimer formation. Similar to other sMafs, MafF lacks any canonical transcriptional activation domains. Expression ''MAFF'' is broadly but differentially expressed in various tissues. ''MAFF'' expression was detected in all 16 t ...
