描述：

Elk-1兔多抗能检测内源性总Elk-1蛋白水平。该抗体可能会与其他Elk/ETS结构域家族成员发生交叉反应。该多克隆抗体是通过用与人源Elk-1蛋白序列相一致的合成肽段免疫动物后获得的。该抗体经蛋白A和肽亲和层析纯化。转录因子Elk-1是一个三元复合物的组成部分，该复合物能结合血清效应因子(SRE)，调节基因活性以应答血清和生长因子(1-3)。MAP激酶能将Elk-1蛋白羧端的一串S/T基序磷酸化，这些位点的磷酸化，特别是丝氨酸（383位点）的磷酸化，对Elk-1蛋白的转录活性很重要。Elk-1蛋白似乎是活化的MAP激酶直接的靶点：(a)生化研究表明Elk-1蛋白是MAP激酶很好的底物；(b) Elk-1蛋白磷酸化和活化的动力学与MAP激酶活性有关；(c) MAP激酶的干扰突变体会阻碍体内Elk-1蛋白的活化。其他研究表明丝氨酸（383位点）磷酸化的Elk-1蛋白也是应激性活化激酶SAPK/JNK的靶点(4,5).。

原厂资料：

Specificity / Sensitivity

Elk-1 Antibody detects endogenous levels of total Elk-1 protein. It may cross-react with other Elk/ETS-domain family members.

Source / Purification

Polyclonal antibodies are produced by immunizing animals with a synthetic peptide corresponding to the sequence of human Elk-1. Antibodies are purified by protein A and peptide affinity chromatography.

Background

The transcription factor Elk-1 is a component of the ternary complex that binds the serum response element (SRE) and mediates gene activity in response to serum and growth factors (1-3). Elk-1 is phosphorylated by MAP kinase pathways at a cluster of S/T motifs at its carboxy terminus; phosphorylation at these sites, particularly Ser383, is critical for transcriptional activation by Elk-1. Elk-1 appears to be a direct target of activated MAP kinase: (a) biochemical studies indicate that Elk-1 is a good substrate for MAP kinase; (b) the kinetics of Elk-1 phosphorylation and activation correlate with MAP kinase activity; (c) interfering mutants of MAP kinase block Elk-1 activation in vivo. Other studies have shown that Elk-1 (Ser383) is also a target of the stress-activated kinase SAPK/JNK (4,5).
