About ELK1

Cytogenetic location: Xp11.23 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): X:47,635,520-47,650,604 (from NCBI)

This gene has 4 transcripts (splice variants), 179 orthologues and 28 paralogues. Ubiquitous expression in ovary (RPKM 19.1), brain (RPKM 15.9) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

This gene is a member of the Ets family of transcription factors and of the ternary complex factor (TCF) subfamily. Proteins of the TCF subfamily form a ternary complex by binding to the the serum response factor and the serum response 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. This gene produces multiple isoforms by using alternative translational start codons and by alternative splicing. Related pseudogenes have been identified on chromosomes 7 and 14.
