Functional impact of pathogenic Runt domain mutations in <i>Runx2</i> on skeletal and dental development in cleidocranial dysplasia
2025-06-21
Abstract excerpt
Runt-related transcription factor 2 (RUNX2) is essential for skeletogenesis, and mutations in its gene cause cleidocranial dysplasia (CCD), an autosomal dominant skeletal disorder. The evolutionarily conserved 128-amino acid Runt homology domain (RHD) of human RUNX2 is essential for DNA binding and heterodimerization, and serves as a mutation hotspot associated with severe CCD phenotypes. To elucidate the function...
