Large "and small [musculoaponeurotic fibrosarcoma] Maf proteins are able to form homodimers that recognize the Maf recognition element (MARE)."[1]

bZIP Maf is a domain found in Maf transcription factor proteins that contains a leucine zipper (bZIP) domain, which mediates the transcription factor's dimerization and DNA binding properties with DNA motifs termed the Maf recognition elements (MAREs) that are 13 or 14 base pairs long such that the two residues at the beginning of helix H2 are positioned to recognize the flanking region of the DNA.[2]

Human genes

Interactions

Consensus sequences

"Maf factors recognize relatively long palindromic DNA sequences, TGCTGA(G/C)TCAGCA and TGCTGA(GC/CG)TCAGCA, which are now known as Maf recognition elements (MAREs)."[3]

Samplings

Copying an apparent consensus sequence for the MARE of TGCTGA or TCAGCA and putting it in "⌘F" finds none located between ZSCAN22 and A1BG but using TCAGCA alone finds five between ZNF497 and A1BG as can be found by the computer programs.
