ELK1 Antibody

The transcription factor ELK1 is a family of member of ETS oncogene family and of the ternary complex factor (TCF) subfamily, which is located on chromosome Xp11.2 and stimulates transcription. binds to purine-rich DNA sequences. Proteins of the TCF subfamily form a ternary complex by binding to the the serum response factor and the serum reponse element in the promoter of the c-fos proto-oncogene. The protein encoded by this gene is a nuclear target for the ras-raf-MAPK signaling cascade. Elk1 is phosphorylated by MAP kinase pathways at a cluster of S/T motifs at its C terminus, It appears to be a direct target of activated MAP kinase. Biochemical studies indicate that Elk1 is a good substrate for MAP kinase, the kinetics of Elk1phosphorylation and activa- tion correlate with MAP kinase activity, and interfering mutants of MAP kinase block Elk1 activation in vivo. More recent studies have shown that Elk1 is also a target of the Stress Activated Kinase SAPK/JNK. Phosphorylation of Elk1 has also been implicated in synaptic plasticity in the adult hippocampus.
