FUSION GENES

DNA/RNA

Transcription

816 bp mRNA

Proteins

Description

271 amino acids; possess a basic motif and a leucine-zipper; dimerisation with other ATF family members (e.g. ATF-1 homodimers and ATF-1/CREB heterodimers)

Localisation

nuclear

Function

DNA binding protein, binds the consensus sequence: 5GTGACGT(A/C)(A/G)-3; cAMP-inducible transcription factor (cAMP-responsive enhancer-binding protein (CRE), like CREB

Homology

members of the CREB protein family

Implicated in

Entity name
malignant melanoma of soft parts
Disease
very rare neuroectodermal tumour
Prognosis
very poor
Cytogenetics
characterised by the translocation t(12;22)(q13;q12)
Hybrid gene
5 EWSR1- 3 ATF1
Fusion protein
the chimaeric protein is composed of the N-terminal domain of EWS linked to the bZIP domain of ATF-1
Oncogenesis
binds to ATF sites present in cAMP-responsive promoters via the ATF1 bZIP domain and activates transcription constitutively, dependent on the activation domain (EAD) present in EWSR1
