Target Details for MAFA

Target: MAFA (Transcription Factor MafA (MAFA))

Alternative Name: MAFA

Background:

Synonyms: Transcription factor MafA,Pancreatic beta-cell-specific transcriptional activator,Transcription factor RIPE3b1,V-maf musculoaponeurotic fibrosarcoma oncogene homolog A,MAFA,

Background: MAFA is a transcription factor that binds RIPE3b, a conserved enhancer element that regulates pancreatic beta cell-specific expression of the insulin gene. MAFA plays a key role in coordinating and controlling the level of insulin gene expression in islet beta cells. It is located in 8q24.3. The intracellular domain of MAFA contains a single immunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibitory motif (ITIM), which classifies MAFA as a member of an inhibitory receptor superfamily. The inhibitory capacity of MAFA is best defined in mast cells, where MAFA keeps in check the antigen-induced (i.e. Fc epsilon RI-induced) secretion ofinflammatory mediators.

Sequence Similarities: Belongs to the bZIP family. Maf subfamily.

Molecular Weight: 37 kDa

Gene ID: 389692
