Gene Overview

The ETV6 gene encodes one of 29 proteins in the ETS family of transcription factors ( "ETS" is from "E26 transformation-specific" or "E-twenty-six"). The Protein Etvs6 contains two functional domains: a N-terminal pointed (PNT) domain that is involved in protein-protein interactions with itself and other proteins, and a C-terminal DNA-binding domain. The protein is required for hematopoiesis and maintenance of the developing vascular network. This gene is known to be involved in a large number of chromosomal rearrangements associated with leukemia and congenital fibrosarcoma. (addapted form NCBI Gene description).

Transcriptional repressor; binds to the DNA sequence 5-CCGGAAGT-3. Plays a role in hematopoiesis and malignant transformation.
