Musculoaponeurotic fibrosarcoma oncogene family A (MafA) is a pancreatic transcriptional factor that is important to pancreatic beta-cell function. It is a member of the musculo-aponeurotic fibrosarcoma oncogene family, a subgroup of the basic leucine zipper transcription factors with homology to the v-Maf oncoprotein. It acts as a transcriptional regulator that promotes the expression of genes important in glucose-induced insulin secretion, such as insulin, glucokinase and glucose transporter protein-2. Mafa is unique in being exclusively expressed at the secondary and principal phase of insulin-expressing cell production during pancreas organogenesis and is the only transcriptional activator present exclusively in islet beta-cells thus may be involved in pathogenesis of diabetes.
Western blot analysis: 1-2 µg/ml

| Post transnational modification: | Ser-14 and Ser-65 appear to be the major phosphorylation sites. Phosphorylated by MAPK13 on serine and threonine residues (Probable). Phosphorylation by GSK3 requires prior phosphorylation of Ser-65 by another kinase. Phosphorylation proceeds then from Ser-61 to Thr-57, Thr-53 and Ser-49. GSK3-mediated phosphorylation increases its transcriptional activity through the recruitment of the coactivator PCAF, is required for its transforming activity and leads to its degradation through a ubiquitin/proteasome-dependent pathway. |
