MAF1 (MAF1 homolog, negative regulator of RNA polymerase III) is a conserved protein that acts as a global suppressor of RNA polymerase III (Pol III)-mediated transcription, a key process in synthesizing transfer RNAs (tRNAs), 5S rRNA, and other small non-coding RNAs. Initially identified in yeast, MAF1 homologs are found across eukaryotes, including humans. It integrates metabolic and stress signals to regulate Pol III activity, linking cellular energy status to biosynthetic output. Under nutrient-rich conditions, MAF1 is phosphorylated and inactive, allowing Pol III-driven transcription to support cell growth. Stressors like nutrient deprivation, DNA damage, or inhibition of the mTOR signaling pathway trigger MAF1 dephosphorylation, enabling its translocation to the nucleus. Activated MAF1 binds to Pol III and represses transcription, conserving resources during stress.
Recombinant MAF1 protein is engineered for in vitro studies to dissect its molecular interactions, post-translational modifications, and structural features. Produced via heterologous expression systems (e.g., E. coli or mammalian cells), it enables biochemical assays, crystallography, and drug screening. Research highlights MAF1's role beyond Pol III regulation, including potential involvement in cancer (via tRNA synthesis control), metabolic disorders, and longevity. Its ability to modulate translation efficiency and cellular stress responses makes it a target for therapeutic strategies. Recombinant MAF1 tools have advanced understanding of how transcriptional regulation interfaces with mTOR signaling, autophagy, and energy homeostasis. However, mechanistic details of its nuclear shuttling, binding partners, and tissue-specific functions remain active areas of investigation.
