RUNX2 Polyclonal Antibody

Transcription factor involved in osteoblastic differentiation and skeletal morphogenesis. Essential for the maturation of osteoblasts and both intramembranous and endochondral ossification. CBF binds to the core site, 5'-PYGPYGGT-3', of a number of enhancers and promoters, including murine leukemia virus, polyomavirus enhancer, T-cell receptor enhancers, osteocalcin, osteopontin, bone sialoprotein, alpha 1 (I) collagen, LCK, IL-3 and GM-CSF promoters (By similarity) . Inhibits MYST4-dependent transcriptional activation. [SUBUNIT] Interaction with SATB2 results in enhanced DNA binding and transactivation by these transcription factors (By similarity) . Heterodimer of an alpha and a beta subunit. Interacts with HIVEP3 (By similarity) . The alpha subunit binds DNA as a monomer and through the Runt domain. DNA-binding is increased by heterodimerization. Interacts with XRCC6 (Ku70) and XRCC5 (Ku80) . Interacts with MYST3 and MYST4.
