Because neither the putative zinc fingers nor the TAF110 homology domain of ETO is present in PEBP2 alpha B, one might expect functional differences in the ability of AML1/ETO protein to affect the levels of transcription of genes normally regulated to some degree by AML1 (PEBP2 alpha B) during myeloid differentiation.     ///    "The ETO sequence is different from the portion of PEBP 2 alpha B it replaces in the AML1/ETO fusion protein, except for their common high content of proline, serine, and threonine residues.
