Abstract excerpt
The chimeric gene EWS/FLI-1, the hallmark of the Ewing's sarcoma and primitive neuroectodermal tumor family, encodes a fusion protein with enhanced transcriptional activation properties and preserved recognition of canonical ETS binding sites. Although EWS/FLI-1 alters the expression of various genes, the precise mechanism by which EWS/FLI-1 acts as an oncogene remains to be defined. In this study we report that...
