C-Maf Polyclonal Antibody

Rabbit Anti-c-Maf Polyclonal Antibody

Product Specifications

Background

MAF bZIP transcription factorencoded by MAF is a DNA-binding, leucine zipper-containing transcription factor that acts as a homodimer or as a heterodimer. Depending on the binding site and binding partner, the encoded protein can be a transcriptional activator or repressor. This protein plays a role in the regulation of several cellular processes, including embryonic lens fiber cell development, increased T-cell susceptibility to apoptosis, and chondrocyte terminal differentiation. Defects in this gene are a cause of juvenile-onset pulverulent cataract as well as congenital cerulean cataract 4 (CCA4) . Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for MAF.
