    basic FUNCTION
  • playing a role in brain development and neuronal differentiation
  • can enhance the transcriptional repressor function of ATN1
  • induce senescence-like growth arrest independently of replicative stress
  • major role for the functional interaction of AML1/RUNX1T1 with AML1 and TCF12 in transcriptional regulation determined by the fusion protein
  • may be involved in transcriptional regulation in neural stem cells and may have multiple roles during brain development and in heart development
  • can bind both co-repressor molecules and EP300, and may function as a fast-response adaptor protein, inducing transcriptional activation or repression depending on the signaling pathways activated in the cell
  • controls proliferation and the neurotoxic effect of microglia by epigenetically regulating CDK4 and LAT2 via its interaction with HDACs
  • could be involved in the process through which radial glial cells (RGCs) differentiate into neurons
  • CELLULAR PROCESS nucleotide, transcription

    INTERACTION
    DNA
    RNA
    small molecule
    protein
  • interacting with the HDAC1, NCOR1 and SIN3A complex with impaired ability of the fusion protein to repress transcription
  • interacting with atrophin 1 (enhancing the repressor properties of atrophin 1)
  • fusion protein RUNX1/RUNX1T1 up-regulating NTRK1 expression in CD34+ cells
  • RUNX1/RUNX1T1 interacts with SP1 (promotes leukemogenesis by blocking cell differentiation through inhibition of SP1 transactivity)
  • RUNX1T1 and CBFA2T3, are fused to the DNA-binding domain of AML1, a transcriptional activator crucial for hematopoiesis
  • NEUROG2 and ASCL1 are inhibited by CBFA2T2 and CBFA2T3, and less efficiently by RUNX1T1
  • PRMT1 interacts with RUNX1-RUNX1T1 to promote its transcriptional activation and progenitor cell proliferative potential
  • JMJD1C functions as a coactivator for RUNX1-RUNX1T1 and is required for its transcriptional program
  • E3 ubiquitin ligase STUB1 is a negative regulator of both RUNX1 and RUNX1-RUNX1T1
