Members of Maf and CNC families of transcription factors. Both family members possess well-conserved basic region-leucine zipper motifs. The basic regions mediate DNA recognition, and the leucine zippers mediate dimerization. Small Maf proteins lacking canonical transactivation domains are obligatory heterodimeric partner molecules of CNC family proteins.
