Application Note:
MAFF antibody can be used for detection of MAFF by ELISA at 1:62500. MAFF antibody can be used for detection of MAFF by western blot at 5 μg/mL, and HRP conjugated secondary antibody should be diluted 1:50,000 - 100,000.
Background:
MAFF is a basic leucine zipper (bZIP) transcription factor that lacks a transactivation domain. It is known to bind the US-2 DNA element in the promoter of the oxytocin receptor (OTR) gene and most likely heterodimerizes with other leucine zipper-containing proteins to enhance expression of the OTR gene during term pregnancy. MAFF can also form homodimers, and since it lacks a transactivation domain, the homodimer may act as a repressor of transcription. MAFF may also be involved in the cellular stress response.The protein encoded by this gene is a basic leucine zipper (bZIP) transcription factor that lacks a transactivation domain.

The encoded protein can also form homodimers, and since it lacks a transactivation domain, the homodimer may act as a repressor of transcription. This gene may also be involved in the cellular stress response. Two transcript variants encoding the same protein have been found for this gene.
