ID:FLI1_HUMAN DESCRIPTION: RecName: Full=Friend leukemia integration 1 transcription factor; AltName: Full=Proto-oncogene Fli-1; AltName: Full=Transcription factor ERGB; FUNCTION: Sequence-specific transcriptional activator. Recognizes the DNA sequence 5'-C[CA]GGAAGT-3'. SUBUNIT: Can form homodimers or heterodimers with ETV6/TEL1. SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Nucleus. DISEASE: Defects in FLI1 are a cause of Ewing sarcoma (ES) [MIM:612219]. A highly malignant, metastatic, primitive small round cell tumor of bone and soft tissue that affects children and adolescents. It belongs to the Ewing sarcoma family of tumors, a group of morphologically heterogeneous neoplasms that share the same cytogenetic features. They are considered neural tumors derived from cells of the neural crest. Ewing sarcoma represents the less differentiated form of the tumors. Note=A chromosomal aberration involving FLI1 is found in patients with Erwing sarcoma. Translocation t(11;22)(q24;q12) with EWSR1. MISCELLANEOUS: Located on a fragment of chromosome 11 flanked on the centromeric side by the acute lymphoblastic leukemia- associated t(4;11)(q21;q23) translocation breakpoint and on the telomeric side by the Ewing- and neuroepithelioma-associated t(11;22) (q24;q12) breakpoint. SIMILARITY: Belongs to the ETS family. SIMILARITY: Contains 1 ETS DNA-binding domain. SIMILARITY: Contains 1 PNT (pointed) domain.
The RNAfold program from the Vienna RNA Package is used to perform the secondary structure predictions and folding calculations. The estimated folding energy is in kcal/mol. The more negative the energy, the more secondary structure the RNA is likely to have.

The pictures above may be empty if there is no ModBase structure for the protein. The ModBase structure frequently covers just a fragment of the protein. You may be asked to log onto ModBase the first time you click on the pictures. It is simplest after logging in to just click on the picture again to get to the specific info on that model.
Orthologous Genes in Other Species
Orthologies between human, mouse, and rat are computed by taking the best BLASTP hit, and filtering out non-syntenic hits. For more distant species reciprocal-best BLASTP hits are used. Note that the absence of an ortholog in the table below may reflect incomplete annotations in the other species rather than a true absence of the orthologous gene.
