Gene information for MAF1 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID84232
Official gene symbolMAF1
Full nameMAF1 homolog (S. cerevisiae)
Aliases,MGC20332,MGC31779,MGC39758,
Gene summaryThis 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]
