| Gene Symbol | MAF1 |
| Gene Full Name | MAF1 homolog, negative regulator of RNA polymerase III |
| Background | This gene encodes a protein that is similar to Maf1, a Saccharomyces cerevisiae protein highly conserved in eukaryotic cells. Yeast Maf1 is a negative effector of RNA polymerase III (Pol III). It responds to changes in the cellular environment and represses pol III transcription. Biochemical studies identified the initiation factor TFIIIB as a target for Maf1-dependent repression. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008] |
| Function | Element of the mTORC1 signaling pathway that acts as a mediator of diverse signals and that represses RNA polymerase III transcription. Inhibits the de novo assembly of TFIIIB onto DNA. [UniProt] |
| Cellular Localization | Nucleus. Cytoplasm. [UniProt] |
| Calculated MW | 29 kDa |
| PTM | Phosphorylated at Ser-60, Ser-68 and Ser-75; the major sites of phosphorylation. Nuclear accumulation correlates with a concomitant dephosphorylation. Phosphorylation may attenuate its RNA polymerase III-repressive function. Sumoylated with SUMO1 and SUMO2, mainly on Lys-35. Desumoylated by SENP1. SUMOylation promotes the ability of MAF1 to repress transcription and suppress colony formation. [UniProt] |
