FLI1 is a member of ETS family of transcription factors and is a proto-oncogene involved in erythroleukemia and Ewings sarcoma. FLI1 was originally identified as a common proviral insertion (Friend leukemia insertion site 1) and found in 75% of erythroleukemia cell clones induced by the Friend mouse leukemia virus. A chromosomal translocation between the FLI1 gene and EWS gene is found in most Ewing sarcomas. FLI1 has anti-apoptotic acivities and also interferes with nuclear hormone receptors.
