The CBFβ–MYH11 fusion gene encodes a protein that exerts a dominant negative function by  binding to the transcription factor encoded by RUNX1.  The fusion protein encoded by CBFβ–MYH11 competes (10-fold increased binding affinity) with normal CBFbeta protein for free Runx1 protein, and leading to lowered and altered transcription of myeloid genes normally controlled by CBFbeta and Runx1 transcription factors [2].
