Abstract excerpt
Ewings sarcoma and primitive neuroectodermal tumors (ES/PNET) are characterized by the fusion of the N-terminus of the EWS gene to the C-terminus of a member of the ETS family of transcription factors. While such fusion proteins are thought to play dominant oncogenic roles, it is unlikely that a single genetic alteration by itself will support cellular transformation. Given that EWS/FLI1 is only able to transform...
