The Mitogen-Activated Protein Kinase Gene MAF1 Is Essential for the Early Differentiation Phase of Appressorium Formation in Colletotrichum lagenarium

open access: yesMolecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2002
Colletotrichum lagenarium, the causal agent of cucumber anthracnose, invades host plants by forming a specialized infection structure called an appressorium.

Maf1 Is Involved in Coupling Carbon Metabolism to RNA Polymerase III Transcription [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular and Cellular Biology, 2007
RNA polymerase III (Pol III) produces essential components of the biosynthetic machinery, and therefore its activity is tightly coupled with cell growth and metabolism. In the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Maf1 is the only known global and direct Pol III transcription repressor which mediates numerous stress signals.

Novel layers of RNA polymerase III control affecting tRNA gene transcription in eukaryotes [PDF]

open access: yesOpen Biology, 2017
RNA polymerase III (Pol III) transcribes a limited set of short genes in eukaryotes producing abundant small RNAs, mostly tRNA. The originally defined yeast Pol III transcriptome appears to be expanding owing to the application of new methods.

Two Steps in Maf1-dependent Repression of Transcription by RNA Polymerase III [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2005
In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Maf1 is essential for mediating the repression of transcription by RNA polymerase (pol) III in response to diverse cellular conditions. These conditions activate distinct signaling pathways that converge at or above Maf1. Thus, Maf1-dependent repression is thought to involve a common set of downstream inhibitory effects on ...

The first phylogeographic population structure and analysis of transmission dynamics of M. africanum West African 1--combining molecular data from Benin, Nigeria and Sierra Leone.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Mycobacterium africanum is an important cause of tuberculosis (TB) in West Africa. So far, two lineages called M. africanum West African 1 (MAF1) and M. africanum West African 2 (MAF2) have been defined.

Ras/ERK-signalling promotes tRNA synthesis and growth via the RNA polymerase III repressor Maf1 in Drosophila. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2018
The small G-protein Ras is a conserved regulator of cell and tissue growth. These effects of Ras are mediated largely through activation of a canonical RAF-MEK-ERK kinase cascade.

RNA Polymerase III, Ageing and Longevity

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2021
Transcription in eukaryotic cells is performed by three RNA polymerases. RNA polymerase I synthesises most rRNAs, whilst RNA polymerase II transcribes all mRNAs and many non-coding RNAs. The largest of the three polymerases is RNA polymerase III (Pol III)

Emerging Roles for Maf1 beyond the Regulation of RNA Polymerase III Activity [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Molecular Biology, 2015
Maf1 was first identified in yeast, and studies in metazoans have primarily focused on examining its role in the repression of transcription that is dependent on RNA polymerase III. Recent work has revealed a novel and conserved function for Maf1 in the maintenance of intracellular lipid pools in Caenorhabditis elegans, mice, and cancer cell lines ...

Distinct regulation of Maf1 for lifespan extension by Protein kinase A and Sch9

open access: yesAging, 2015
The Protein kinase A (PKA) and Sch9 regulates cell growth as well as lifespan in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Maf1 is a RNA polymerase III (PolIII) inhibitor that tailors 5S rRNA and tRNA production in response to various environmental cues. Both PKA and Sch9 have been shown to phosphorylate Maf1 in vitro at similar amino acids, suggesting a redundancy in
