EWSR1 gene

The EWSR1 gene produces a protein involved in cell processes like gene regulation and DNA repair. Located in our cells' nucleus, it plays a role in normal cell function. Sometimes, changes or mutations in this gene can lead to the production of abnormal proteins, which are linked to certain cancers and tumors, especially in soft tissues and bones. These gene changes can help doctors diagnose these conditions and may influence treatment options. Overall, EWSR1 is important for maintaining normal cell activity, but when altered, it can contribute to disease development.
