Gene Summary

This gene encodes an ETS family transcription factor. The product of this gene 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. Gene knockout studies in mice suggest that it 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. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2008]

Mammary analogue secretory carcinoma (MASC) is a type of salivary gland tumor. A rearrangement in the ETV6 gene can be characteristic of MASC, particularly fusion of ETV6-NTRK3. Our dual-color break apart probe was used to detect ETV6 translocation and aid in the diagnosis of MASC for the patient's tumor.
