    basic FUNCTION
  • control of cell proliferation
  • functioning as a transcriptional repressor in normal breast epithelial cells
  • involved in the chromatin repression
  • interfaces with critical components of the Notch transcription complex to affect Notch-dependent lineage allocation in hematopoiesis
  • a key component of the Notch regulatory network implicated in Notch-dependent transcriptional activation
  • integrates the activities of signaling pathways and nuclear factors in the establishment of T-cell fate specification
  • CELLULAR PROCESS nucleotide, transcription

    INTERACTION

    small molecule
    protein
  • ZNF652 strongly interacts with CBFA2T3 and this interaction occurs through the C-terminal 109 amino acids of ZNF652
  • RUNX1T1 and CBFA2T3, are fused to the DNA-binding domain of AML1, a transcriptional activator crucial for hematopoiesis
  • interacts with each member of the Notch receptor family
  • NEUROG2 and ASCL1 are inhibited by CBFA2T2 and CBFA2T3, and less efficiently by RUNX1T1
