Abstract excerpt
Core-binding factors (CBFs) are a small family of heterodimeric transcription factors that play critical roles in several developmental pathways, including hematopoiesis and bone development. Mutations in CBF genes are found in leukemias and bone disorders. CBFs consist of a DNA-binding CBFalpha subunit (Runx1, Runx2, or Runx3) and a non-DNA-binding CBFbeta subunit. CBFalpha binds DNA in a sequence-specific...
