The molecular mass of MAF1 is approximately 29 kDa. This protein mainly expresses in the nucleus of eukaryotic cells. MAF1's activity is controlled by phosphorylation which governs its ability to repress the transcription of RNA polymerase III.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nMAF1 is significant in cellular growth and metabolism regulation. It is not part of a larger protein complex but interacts with several proteins to exert its regulatory functions. MAF1 acts as a brake on RNA polymerase III activity responding to changes in cellular environmental conditions such as nutrient availability and stress. By doing so MAF1 helps coordinate cellular responses to shifts in energy levels and stress modulating the balance between cell growth and maintenance.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nMAF1 plays a role in the mTOR signaling pathway which is important for cell growth proliferation and survival. Within this pathway MAF1 functions as a downstream effector that inhibits RNA transcription when mTORC1 activity decreases. It relates closely to other proteins such as mTOR and AKT which are also involved in cellular responses to nutrient and energy fluctuations. By influencing RNA polymerase III transcription MAF1 contributes to the regulation of protein synthesis according to metabolic needs.\u003cbr\u003e\nAlterations in MAF1 activity associate with cancer and metabolic syndromes. In cancer reduced MAF1 activity can lead to unchecked RNA polymerase III activity promoting fast cell proliferation and tumor growth. In metabolic disorders MAF1's involvement in nutrient sensing pathways links to insulin resistance when dysregulated. Through these conditions MAF1 connects to proteins like mTOR and AKT and its malfunction can exacerbate disease progression due to disrupted cell growth control.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46845185163433,"sku":"ab258503","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/ar\/products\/abcam-ab258503","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
