NCIt definition : Human FLI1 wild-type allele is located within 11q24.1-q24.3 and is approximately 118
kb in length. This allele, which encodes Friend leukemia integration 1 transcription
factor protein, plays a role in the activation of transcription by RNA polymerase
II. Ewing sarcoma is linked to the chromosomal translocation t(11;22)(q24;q12) of
the EWSR1 gene and the FLI1 gene.;
NCIt note : The product of the FLI1 gene recognizes the DNA sequence 5'-C[CA]GGAAGT-3' (GeneCards).;
