Supplementary information

The MAX protein also known as Myc-associated factor X functions mechanically as a transcription factor with a molecular weight of approximately 20 kDa. MAX is expressed in a wide range of tissues throughout the body. The protein forms homodimers or heterodimers with other members of the basic-helix-loop-helix-zipper (bHLHZ) family such as MYC MAD and MNT. The dimerization with different partners determines its role as an activator or repressor of transcription affecting the regulation of various genes.
Biological function summary

The MAX protein plays a significant role in controlling cell growth differentiation and apoptosis. The protein often forms part of complex regulatory networks within the cell. By interacting with different partner proteins MAX modulates transcriptional activity affecting cellular outcomes. Importantly it can switch between activating or repressing target genes depending on the dimer partner influencing processes such as proliferation and differentiation.

Pathways

MAX is deeply integrated into the MYC-MAX-MAD pathway an important pathway for regulating gene expression linked to cell cycle and proliferative processes. Within this pathway MAX pairs with either MYC or MAD depending on the cellular context to influence transcription. When paired with MYC it promotes transcription while pairing with MAD results in transcriptional repression. Additionally in the growth signaling pathway the MAX protein's regulation of target genes is pivotal for ensuring proper cellular responses to growth signals.

The malfunction of the MAX protein has a strong association with cancer and neurodegenerative diseases. Alterations in MAX function can lead to uncontrolled cell growth contributing to oncogenesis particularly in relation to MYC which is a known oncogene. Furthermore dysregulation of the MAX protein is linked to neurodegenerative disorders where abnormal MAX activity may disrupt normal neural gene expression enhancing disease progression.

Target data

Transcription regulator. Forms a sequence-specific DNA-binding protein complex with MYC or MAD which recognizes the core sequence 5'-CAC[GA]TG-3'. The MYC : MAX complex is a transcriptional activator, whereas the MAD : MAX complex is a repressor. May repress transcription via the recruitment of a chromatin remodeling complex containing H3 'Lys-9' histone methyltransferase activity. Represses MYC transcriptional activity from E-box elements.
