Automated Description
Enables DNA-binding transcription activator activity, RNA polymerase II-specific; RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity; and SMAD binding activity. Involved in several processes, including nematode male tail tip morphogenesis; positive regulation of locomotion involved in locomotory behavior; and regulation of gene expression. Acts upstream of or within dopamine metabolic process. Located in nucleus. Part of core-binding activity factor complex. Is expressed in several structures, including body wall musculature; dopaminergic neurons; intestine; ray precursor cell; and seam cell. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including acute myeloid leukemia; breast cancer (multiple); carcinoma (multiple); osteochondrodysplasia (multiple); and pancreatic cancer. Orthologous to several human genes including RUNX2 (RUNX family transcription factor 2) and RUNX3 (RUNX family transcription factor 3).
WB Description
rnt-1 encodes a transcription factor that is the sole C. elegans member of the Runx family of transcriptional regulators; rnt-1 activity is required for several developmental processes, including regulation of hypodermal seam cell proliferation and proper development of the male tail; rnt-1 mutant animals also exhibit a slight reduction in body size which is enhanced by starvation; RNT-1 can physically interact with SMA-4 and regulates, either directly or indirectly, expression of tlp-1 and cki-1, which encode a C2H2 zinc finger and CDK inhibitor, respectively; RNT-1::GFP reporter fusions are expressed in the nuclei of hypodermal seam cells and transiently in body wall muscles; in males, a RNT-1::GFP is expressed in cells derived from the V5, V6 and T lineages that give rise to the sensory rays.
