Abstract excerpt
The most common chromosomal translocation in liposarcomas, t(12;16)(q13;p11), creates the FUS/TLS-CHOP fusion gene. We previously developed a mouse model of liposarcoma by expressing FUS-CHOP in murine mesenchymal stem cells. In order to understand how FUS-CHOP can initiate liposarcoma, we have now generated transgenic mice expressing altered forms of the FUS-CHOP protein. Transgenic mice expressing high levels...
