RUNX2: A Master Bone Growth Regulator That May Be Involved in the DNA Damage Response
2 Jan 2015
Abstract excerpt
RUNX2 is a member of the RUNX family of transcription factors, also containing the RUNX1 and RUNX3 proteins. These factors control the expression of genes essential for proper development in many cell lineages. RUNX2 plays a crucial role in the proliferation and differentiation of osteoblasts, required for bone formation. The cellular level of RUNX2 oscillates in a cell phase-specific manner, reaching a maximum...
