FLI1: Small Molecules and Peptides

Ets-1 is the prototype member of a family of genes identified on the basis of homology to the v-Ets oncogene isolated from the E26 erythroblastosis virus. This family of genes currently includes Ets-1, Ets-2 Erg-1, Erg-2, Elk, E74, Fli-1, PU.1 and PEA3. Members of the Ets gene family exhibit varied pattern of tissue expression, and share a highly conserved carboxy terminal domain containing a sequence related to the SV40 large T antigen nuclear localization signal sequence.
