Preparation and Storage

Background: FLI1

FLI1 (Friend leukemia virus integration site 1; also ERGB) is a member of the ETS family of transcription factors. Although its predicted MW is 51 kDa. FLI1 is expressed by megakaryocytes, macrophages, B cells and embryonic endothelial cells. It is a transcriptional activator that regulates the genes for Tie-2, GpIIb, MPL and TGF-beta RII. Human FLI1 is 452 amino acids (aa) in length. It contains one PNT domain that is involved in heterotypic interactions (aa 112-198) and an ETS DNA‑binding domain (aa 281-361). There are two potential splice variants. One shows an alternative start site at Met34, while another contains a 10 aa substitution for aa 1‑76. There are a series of naturally occurring 62-68 kDa chimeric proteins (EWS/FLI1) in tumors that result from a chromosomal translocation involving the EWS and FLI1 genes. One creates a 499 aa chimera that includes aa 1-265 of EWS and 220-452 of FLI1. Over aa 13-112, human FLI1 shares 98% aa identity with mouse FLI1.
