Cells were isolated from another cancerous tumor, and it was found that the DNA coding for Ets1 in these cancer cells was heavily methylated. How would you expect that to affect the Ets1 found in these cells?

The amount of Ets1 produced by these cells would likely be decreased.

This would have no effect on the amount of Ets1 produced by the cell.

The amount of Ets1 produced by these cells would likely be increased.

The Ets1 that was produced by these cells would not be active.

The amount of Ets1 produced by these cells would likely be decreased.
