Affect Of Ascent/Descent Upon Turn Radius

In general, what is the affect if any, upon an aircraft turn radius for a given angle of bank (AoB) during ascending and descending turns, compared to level turns using the same AoB? Will a turn radius distance still remain constant during ascending/descending turns as long as the AoB and speed remains constant?
