The protein encoded by this gene is a basic leucine zipper (bZIP) transcription factor that plays an important role in the regulation of lineage-specific hematopoiesis. The encoded nuclear protein represses ETS1-mediated transcription of erythroid-specific genes in myeloid cells. This gene contains no introns. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
MAFB (MAF BZIP Transcription Factor B) is a Protein Coding gene. Diseases associated with MAFB include Multicentric Carpotarsal Osteolysis Syndrome and Duane Retraction Syndrome 3 With Or Without Deafness. Among its related pathways are Tacrolimus/Cyclosporine Pathway, Pharmacodynamics and Ectoderm Differentiation. Gene Ontology (GO) annotations related to this gene include DNA-binding transcription factor activity and transcription factor binding. An important paralog of this gene is MAF.
