Anti-RUNX3 Antibody Picoband®

Runt-related transcription factor 3, also called AML2 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the RUNX3 gene. The RUNX3 gene encodes a Runt-related transcription factor, which is part of the RUNX gene family. By fluorescence in situ hybridization, RUNX3 was assigned to human chromosome 1p36.11. RUNX3 binds to the core site of murine Leukemia virus, the core sequences in the enhancer of the polyomavirus, and also to the enhancers of the T-cell receptor genes. It may be involved in the control of cellular proliferation and/or differentiation.
