NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
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.

Uniprot Description
ELK1: a transcription factor of the Ets family and the ternary complex factor (TCF) subfamily. Forms a ternary complex by binding to the serum response factor and the serum response element in the promoter of the c-fos proto-oncogene. Mediates gene activity in response to serum and growth factors. Phosphorylated by MAP kinase pathways at a cluster of S/T motifs at its C-terminus; phosphorylation at these sites is critical for transcriptional activation by Elk-1. Two alternatively-spliced isoforms have been described.

Product Notes
The Human, Mouse ELK1 elk1 (Catalog #AAA9502154) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA9502154 ELISA Kit recognizes Human, Mouse ELK1. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Elk1, ELISA Kit" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
