Name | ELK1 (HGNC:3321) |
---|---|
Function | Transcription factor that binds to purine-rich DNA sequences (PubMed:10799319, PubMed:7889942). Forms a ternary complex with SRF and the ETS and SRF motifs of the serum response element (SRE) on the promoter region of immediate early genes such as FOS and IER2 (PubMed:1630903). Induces target gene transcription upon JNK and MAPK- signaling pathways stimulation (PubMed:7889942). |
Cellular Location | Nucleus. |
Tissue Location | Lung and testis. |

Background
Elk-1 is a transcription factor that binds the serum response element (SRE) and mediates gene activity in response to serum and growth factors. Elk-1 is phosphorylated by MAP kinase pathways and appears to be a direct target of activated MAP kinase. Biochemical studies indicate that Elk-1 is a good substrate for MAP kinase. The kinetics of Elk-1 phosphorylation and activation correlate with MAP kinase activity. Other studies have shown that Elk-1 (Ser383) is also a target of the stress-activated kinase SAPK/JNK.
