Structured_descriptionConcise_descriptionbro-1 encodes an ortholog of human CBFB (OMIM:121360, mutated in acute myeloid leukemia and CBFB haploinsufficiency) and Drosophila BRO/BGB; BRO-1 is required for the normal proliferation and differentiation of seam cells, alae, and male tail rays; bro-1 mutants exhibit defective seam cell division and differentiation, and males exhibit ray loss; conversely, transgenic overexpression of BRO-1 induces excess seam cell divisions at least somewhat independently of RNT-1; coexpression of both BRO-1 and RNT-1 induces full seam cell hyperplasia; rnt-1 transcription is abnormally high in bro-1 mutant larvae; BRO-1 is also required for normal structural integrity of the vulva, with bro-1 mutants showing ruptured vulvae; BRO-1 is expressed in both cytoplasm and nuclei of hypodermal seam cells (from bean-stage embryos onward), muscle cells, the uterine seam (utse) cell in late L4 larvae, some pharyngeal neurons, and male ray precursor cells, and transgenic expression of BRO-1 in seam cells alone rescues the bro-1(bp133) mutation; seam cell phenotypes of bro-1 mutants are partly suppressed by inactivation of LIN-35, FZR-1, and CKI-1, all of which inhibit progression from G1 to S phase of the cell cycle; the structural similarity of BRO-1 to CBFbeta has been confirmed by circular dichroism; BRO-1 is bound in vitro by the RUNT domains (RDs) of either RNT-1 or its human ortholog RUNX1; although BRO-1 does not itself bind DNA, it does bind to a complex of DNA with RNT-1's RD, and enhances both the strength and the specificity of RNT-1's DNA binding when it does so; BRO-1 is genetically redundant with UNC-37 and SOP-1 in specifying seam cell fate, and BRO-1's ligand RNT-1 binds UNC-37 in vitro; bro-1(bp133) and sop-1(RNAi) also show synthetic lethality.Paper_evidenceWBPaper00006525

Automated_descriptionEnables transcription corepressor activity. Involved in several processes, including negative regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II; nematode male tail tip morphogenesis; and positive regulation of locomotion involved in locomotory behavior. Located in nucleus. Part of core-binding activity factor complex. Expressed in hypodermis; muscle cell; pharyngeal neurons; ray precursor cell; and uterine seam cell. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in acute myelomonocytic leukemia and hepatocellular carcinoma. Is an ortholog of human CBFB (core-binding factor subunit beta).Paper_evidenceWBPaper00065943

Reference (32)
RemarkMap position created from combination of previous interpolated map position (based on known location of sequence) and allele information. Therefore this is not a genetic map position based on recombination frequencies or genetic experiments. This was done on advice of the CGC.CGC_data_submission
