ERG (gene) applications in using blood stem cells for tissue repair, transplantation and other therapeutic applications. This gene can be classified as a proto-oncogene. During chromosomal translocations that occur in cell division, "ERG" can accidentally get stuck onto a different chromosome than where it belongs. This is analogous to another translocation, the Philadelphia chromosome. This results in fusion gene products, which can have bad consequences for cells. Examples of these fusion gene products would be TMPRSS2-ERG and NDRG1-ERG in prostate cancer, EWS-ERG in Ewing’s sarcoma, and FUS-ERG in acute myeloid leukemia. DNA binding protein ERG fuses with RNA binding proteins EWS and
