This desolate region is a practically uninhabited area; there are no permanent villages and there are no roads crossing it.

ERG (gene) Sarcoma cases have an EWS1-ERG fusion. In acute myeloid leukemia, the t(16;21) translocation in myeloid leukemia fuses TLS/FUS to ERG which disrupts the natural TLS/FUS RNA binding domain, and instead inserting the ERG DNA binding domain. "ERG" is located on chromosome 21. The ERG protein is expressed at a similar level throughout the body. "ERG" has been shown to interact with: ERG (gene) ERG (ETS-related gene) is an oncogene. ERG is a member of the ETS (erythroblast transformation-specific) family of transcription factors. The "ERG" gene encodes for a protein, also called ERG, that functions as a transcriptional regulator. Genes in
