INS — MAFB
Text-mined interactions from Literome
Nishimura et al., Dev Biol 2008
:
We show that
MafB can directly
activate expression of
insulin and glucagon, and a MafB protein engineered to contain N248S mutation in the MafB ( kr ( ENU ) ) results in significantly reduced activation
Artner et al., J Endocrinol 2008
:
However, only MafA over-expression selectively
induced endogenous
Insulin mRNA production in cell line based assays, while
MafB specifically promoted Glucagon expression ... Ectopic expression of MafA, but not
MafB ,
promoted Insulin production ; however, neither MafA nor MafB were capable of inducing Glucagon
