Target

Full Name
MAF BZIP TRANSCRIPTION FACTOR K
Introduction
The developmentally regulated expression of the globin genes depends on upstream regulatory elements termed locus control regions. LCRs are associated with powerful enhancer activity that is mediated by the transcription factor NFE2. NFE2 recognition sites are also present in the gene promoters of 2 heme biosynthetic enzymes, porphobilinogen deaminase and ferrochelatase. NFE2 DNA-binding activity consists of a heterodimer containing an 18-kD Maf protein, or MafK) and p45. Both subunits are members of the activator protein-1 superfamily of basic leucine zipper proteins. Maf homodimers suppress transcription at NFE2 sites.

Function
Since they lack a putative transactivation domain, the small Mafs behave as transcriptional repressors when they dimerize among themselves (PubMed:9150357).
However, they act as transcriptional activators by dimerizing with other (usually larger) basic-zipper proteins, such as NFE2, NFE2L1/NRF1, NFE2L2/NRF2 and NFE2L3/NRF3, and recruiting them to specific DNA-binding sites (PubMed:9150357, PubMed:8932385).
Small Maf proteins heterodimerize with Fos and may act as competitive repressors of the NF-E2 transcription factor (PubMed:9150357).
