RUNX1

核心结合因子（cbf）是一种与许多增强子和启动子的核心元素结合的异二聚体转录因子。该基因编码的蛋白质代表CBF的α亚单位，被认为与正常造血的发育有关。涉及这一基因的染色体易位有很好的文献记载，并与几种类型的白血病有关。三种编码不同亚型的转录变体已经被发现。
Core binding factor (CBF) is a heterodimeric transcription factor that binds to the core element of many enhancers and promoters. The protein encoded by this gene represents the alpha subunit of CBF and is thought to be involved in the development of normal hematopoiesis. Chromosomal translocations involving this gene are well-documented and have been associated with several types of leukemia. Three transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.
