MAD4 is a member of the MAD gene family . The MAD genes encode basic helix loop helix leucine zipper proteins that heterodimerize with MAX protein, forming a transcriptional repression complex. The MAD proteins compete for MAX binding with MYC, which heterodimerizes with MAX forming a transcriptional activation complex. Studies in rodents suggest that the MAD genes are tumor suppressors and contribute to the regulation of cell growth in differentiating tissues.Synonyms: MAD-4, MAX dimerization protein 4, MXD4, Max-associated protein 4, Max-interacting transcriptional repressor MAD4
