Transcription factor Maf, also known as proto-oncogene c-Maf or V-maf musculoaponeurotic fibrosarcoma oncogene homolog, is a transcription factor that in humans is encoded by the MAF gene.[5][6]

Types

[edit]

One type, MafA, also known as RIPE3b1,[7] promotes pancreatic development, as well as insulin gene transcription.[8]

Interactions
