GeneID: 68877 Mouse MAF1

GeneID: 84232 Human MAF1

Swiss-port # Q9D0U6 Mouse Repressor of RNA polymerase III transcription MAF1 homolog

Swiss-port # Q9H063 Human Repressor of RNA polymerase III transcription MAF1 homolog

Gene Symbol MAF1
Gene Full Name MAF1 homolog (S. cerevisiae)
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]
