Background
This gene encodes a transcription factor that belongs to the cap'n'collar type of basic region leucine zipper factor family (CNC-bZip). The encoded protein contains broad complex, tramtrack, bric-a-brac/poxvirus and zinc finger (BTB/POZ) domains, which is atypical of CNC-bZip family members. These BTB/POZ domains facilitate protein-protein interactions and formation of homo- and/or hetero-oligomers. When this encoded protein forms a heterodimer with MafK, it functions as a repressor of Maf recognition element (MARE) and transcription is repressed. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants have been identified for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, May 2009],function:Transcriptional regulator that acts as repressor or activator. Binds, in-vitro, to NF-E2 binding sites. Play important roles in coordinating transcription activation and repression by MAFK.,similarity:Belongs to the bZIP family.,similarity:Belongs to the bZIP family. CNC subfamily.,similarity:Contains 1 BTB (POZ) domain.,similarity:Contains 1 bZIP domain.,
