Schematic representation of c-Maf genomic structure and predicted functional domains. c-Maf and its RNA splice variant Lc-Maf (long form c-Maf) contain the same 5′ untranslated region. c-Maf is transcribed from a single exon, and through mRNA splicing, Lc-Maf has a frame shift that alters the last amino acid of c-Maf Exon 1 and codes for an additional 10 amino acids (in mouse) or 30 amino acids (in human). The mechanism of splicing is unknown. Intron/exon sizes are not drawn to scale.
