t(6;22)(p21;q12)
The t(6;22)(p21;q12) translocation associated with human bone and soft-tissue tumors results in a chimeric molecule fusing the amino terminal domain (NTD) of the EWS gene to the carboxy terminal domain (CTD) of the Oct-4 embryonic gene (POU5F1). The fusion of the EWS amino terminal domain to the Oct-4 DNA binding domain produces a transforming chimeric product.
