Description

RUNX family transcription factor 2

Gene Summary

Enables DNA-binding transcription factor binding activity; general transcription initiation factor binding activity; and histone deacetylase binding activity. Involved in several processes, including bone regeneration; cellular response to hyperoxia; and cellular response to parathyroid hormone stimulus. Located in nucleus. Biomarker of glucocorticoid-induced osteoporosis; metabolic acidosis; osteoporosis; and type 1 diabetes mellitus. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in cleidocranial dysplasia; lung non-small cell carcinoma; metaphyseal dysplasia-maxillary hypoplasia-brachydactyly syndrome; and osteonecrosis. Orthologous to human RUNX2 (RUNX family transcription factor 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]
