Cell-type dependent enhancer binding of the EWS/ATF1 fusion gene in clear cell sarcomas

The EWS-ATF1 fusion gene causes clear cell sarcoma (CCS). Here, the authors show that the downstream effects of EWS-ATF1 expression are strictly context dependent, and reveal the cell of origin for CCS to be Tppp3-expressing cells in peripheral nerves.
