Gene: MAFB
Alternate names for this Gene: DURS3|KRML|MCTO
Gene Summary: 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.
Gene is located in Chromosome: 20
Location in Chromosome : 20q12
Description of this Gene: MAF bZIP transcription factor B
Type of Gene: protein-coding
