Cover: The overlayed figure depicts the binding of the bZIP transcription factor, Maf, to its target sequence (5′-AT-rich-TGCTGAC). The background image reveals the expression pattern of a Maf-dependent GFP reporter gene in a transgenic Xenopus embryo (st. 45). GFP expression can be seen in the lens and kidney [Yoshida et al. (2005), Nucleic Acids Res., 33, 3465–3478].
