Target data

Function

Transcriptional regulator, potentially with dual roles in transcription initiation and termination. Isoform 1. Binds DNA and functions as a transcriptional activator (PubMed:12270922). Binds to two G/A-rich sites, ME1a1 and ME1a2, within the MYC promoter having greater affinity for the former (PubMed:1502157). Also binds to multiple G/C-rich sites within the promoter of the Sp1 family of transcription factors (PubMed:1502157). Isoform 2. Binds DNA and functions as a transcriptional activator (PubMed:12270922). Inhibits MAZ isoform 1-mediated transcription (PubMed:12270922). Isoform 3. Binds DNA and functions as a transcriptional activator.

Activity summary

The MAZ protein also known as Myc-associated zinc finger protein or Pur-1 has a mass of about 49 kDa. This protein is a transcription factor and contains zinc-finger motifs that enable it to bind to specific DNA sequences influencing gene expression. MAZ is expressed in various tissues including the brain and the heart and plays a significant role in regulating various physiological processes. Researchers often study MAZ for its involvement in cellular proliferation and differentiation.

Biological function summary

MAZ influences the transcription of genes involved in cell growth and division. It does not function as part of a larger complex but acts by binding directly to DNA influencing the transcription machinery. Its activity is critical in controlling genes linked to cell cycle progression and apoptosis. Its regulatory functions help maintain normal cellular function and tissue homeostasis.

Pathways

MAZ is integral to the regulation of the MAPK and Wnt signaling pathways. The protein interacts with other signaling molecules in these pathways to modulate gene expression linked to cell proliferation and differentiation. Additionally MAZ has associations with the MYC oncogene highlighting its involvement in pathways related to cellular growth and cancer development.

Associated diseases and disorders

Researchers find a relationship between MAZ and cancer especially glioblastoma and colorectal cancer. The protein's overexpression can contribute to oncogenic transformation and tumor progression. MAZ also connects with other proteins such as MYC in these disorders highlighting its important role in cancer-related pathways. Understanding the role of MAZ in these diseases could provide insights into therapeutic targets for limiting tumor growth.
