The fusion protein of uncharacterised zinc finger translocation associated (ZFTA) and effector transcription factor of tumorigenic NF-κB signalling, RELA (ZFTA-RELA), is expressed in more than two-thirds of supratentorial ependymoma (ST-EPN-RELA), but ZFTA’s expression profile and functional analysis in multiciliated ependymal (E1) cells have not been examined. The gene discussed is RELA; the disease is ependymoma.
