Binding of RUNX2 to the OSE2 element in the promoter of the BGLAP (osteocalcin, OC) gene stimulates BGLAP transcription (Ducy and Karsenty 1995, Ducy et al. 1997). When RUNX2 binds the OSE2 element in complex with the MAF transcription factor, BGLAP transcription is enhanced (Nishikawa et al. 2010). BGLAP gene transcription is also directly stimulated by the complex of RUNX2 and WWTR1 (TAZ) (Hong et al. 2005), as well as the complex of RUNX2 and RB1 (Thomas et al. 2001). Phosphorylation of RUNX2, in the context of the RUNX2:CBFB complex, increases its association with the BGLAP promoter and enhances BGLAP transcription (Wee et al. 2002, Ge et al. 2009). Osteocalcin, a bone-derived hormone, is one of the most abundant non-collagenous proteins of the bone extracellular matrix (reviewed in Karsenty and Olson 2016).
Association of the activated androgen receptor (AR) with RUNX2 prevents binding of RUNX2 to the BGLAP promoter (Baniwal et al. 2009). Based on studies in rat, when YAP1, phosphorylated on an unknown tyrosine residue by SRC and/or YES1, is present in the complex with RUNX2 at the BGLAP gene promoter, transcription of the BGLAP gene is inhibited (Zaidi et al. 2004). Signaling by SRC is known to inhibit osteoblast differentiation (Marzia et al. 2000). Based on studies in mice, binding to ZNF521 (ZNP521) inhibits RUNX2-mediated activation of target promoters, such as BGLAP. HDAC3 is needed for ZNF521 to inhibit RUNX2-mediated transcription from the BGLAP promoter. Action of ZNF521 antagonizes RUNX2 during mesenchymal commitment to the osteoblast lineage and during osteoblast maturation (Hesse et al. 2010).
