The present analysis of 89 Ewing ' s sarcomas and related tumours show that in addition to the expected EWS FLI 1 fusion , the EWS gene can be fused to ERG , a transcription factor closely related to FLI 1 but located on chromosome 21 . ^^^ All 13 different fusion proteins that were evidenced contained the N terminal domain of EWS and the Ets domain of FLI 1 or ERG suggesting that oncogenic conversion is achieved by the linking of the two domains with no marked constraint on the connecting peptide . . ^^^

In Ewing tumors EWS can be fused to four different members of the ETS family , namely FLI 1 , ERG , ETV 1 and E1AF . ^^^ FEV encodes a 238 amino acid protein which contains an ETS DNA binding domain closely related to that of FLI 1 and ERG . ^^^ However , the N terminal portion of FEV is only 42 amino acids long which suggests that FEV is lacking important transcription regulatory domains contained in FLI 1 and ERG N terminal parts . ^^^

Inhibition of apoptosis by normal and aberrant Fli 1 and erg proteins involved in human solid tumors and leukemias . ^^^ Two ets family members , namely erg and Fli 1 are fused with two EWS family members namely EWS and TLS / FUS as a result of chromosome translocation in human solid tumors and leukemias . ^^^ EWS erg and EWS Fli 1 , which are involved in greater than 95 % of Ewing family of tumors , were shown to function as transcriptional activators . ^^^ Expression of these fusion proteins ( EWS erg and EWS Fli 1 ) are shown to be essential for maintaining the oncogenic and tumorigenic properties of tumor cells . ^^^ Therefore , we have studied the role of normal ( Fli 1 and erg ) and aberrant fusion proteins ( EWS erg , EWS Fli 1 and TLS / FUS erg ) in apoptosis . ^^^

The Ewing ' s sarcoma ( ES ) family of tumors , including peripheral neuroectodermal tumor ( PNET ) , is defined genetically by specific chromosomal translocations resulting in fusion of the EWS gene with a member of the ETS family of transcription factors , either FLI 1 ( 90 95 % ) or ERG ( 5 10 % ) . ^^^ A second level of molecular genetic heterogeneity stems from the variation in the location of the translocation breakpoints , resulting in the inclusion of different combinations of exons from EWS and FLI 1 ( or ERG ) in the fusion products . ^^^ In a group of 86 ES / PNET with defined EWS ETS fusions ( 45 EWS FLI 1 type 1 , 27 EWS FLI 1 non type 1 , 14 EWS ERG ) , we assessed proliferation rate by immunostaining for Ki 67 using MIB 1 antibody ( n = 85 ) , apoptosis by TUNEL assay ( n = 66 ) , and IGF 1R expression by immunostaining with antibody 1H7 ( n = 78 ) . ^^^ Comparing EWS FLI 1 to EWS ERG cases , Ki 67 proliferative index was higher in the latter ( P = 0 . 01 , Mann Whitney test ; P = 0 . 02 , Fisher ' s exact test ) , but there was no significant difference in IGF 1R . ^^^

EWS FLI 1 , EWS ERG , and EWS ETV 1 oncoproteins of Ewing tumor family all suppress transcription of transforming growth factor beta type 2 receptor gene . ^^^ Ewing sarcoma specific chromosomal translocations fuse the EWS gene to a subset of ets transcription factor family members , most commonly the FLI 1 gene and less frequently ERG , ETV 1 , E1A F , or FEV . ^^^ We show that relative to the control , NIH 3T3 cell lines stably transfected with the EWS FLI 1 , EWS ERG , or EWS ETV 1 gene fusion express reduced levels of TGF beta RII mRNA and protein , and that these cell lines have reduced TGF beta sensitivity . ^^^ Cotransfection of these fusion genes and the TGF beta RII promoter suppresses TGF beta RII promoter activity and also FLI 1 , ERG , or ETV 1 induced promoter activity . ^^^ These results indicate that transcriptional repression of TGF beta RII is an important target of the EWS FLI 1 , EWS ERG , or EWS ETV 1 oncogene , and that EWS ets fusion proteins may function as dominant negative forms of ets transcription factors . . ^^^
