Abstract excerpt
EWS/FLI and other EWS/ets chimeric transcription factors play a central role in the biology of the Ewing family tumors. As with many oncogenes, EWS/FLI biologic activity can be demonstrated in a limited range of cellular contexts. To investigate the causes of this restriction, we demonstrate that two immortalized fibroblast lines resistant to EWS/FLI transformation, Rat1 and Yal7, express stable levels of EWS/FLI...
