Rabbit Anti-RUNX1 + RUNX2/FITC Conjugated antibody
background:
This gene is a member of the RUNX family of transcription factors and encodes a nuclear protein with an Runt DNA-binding domain. This protein is essential for osteoblastic differentiation and skeletal morphogenesis and acts as a scaffold for nucleic acids and regulatory factors involved in skeletal gene expression. The protein can bind DNA both as a monomer or, with more affinity, as a subunit of a heterodimeric complex. Mutations in this gene have been associated with the bone development disorder cleidocranial dysplasia (CCD). Transcript variants that encode different protein isoforms result from the use of alternate promoters as well as alternate splicing. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
Function:
CSF 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, LCK, IL-3 and GM-CSF promoters. The alpha subunit binds DNA and appears to have a role in the development of normal hematopoiesis. Isoform AML-1L interferes with the transactivation activity of RUNX1. Acts synergistically with ELF4 to transactivate the IL-3 promoter and with ELF2 to transactivate the mouse BLK promoter. Inhibits KAT6B-dependent transcriptional activation.
Subcellular Location:
Nucleus.
Tissue Specificity:
Expressed in all tissues examined except brain and heart. Highest levels in thymus, bone marrow and peripheral blood.
Post-translational modifications:
Phosphorylated in its SLCterminus upon IL-6 treatment. Phosphorylation enhances interaction with KAT6A.
Methylated.
Phosphorylated in Ser-249 Thr-273 and Ser-276 by HIPK2 when associated with CSFB and DNA. This phosphorylation promotes subsequent EP300 phosphorylation.
Similarity:
Contains 1 Runt domain.
