How can you use “elk-” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
Since Elk-1 and p35-C/EBPβ synergize in transactivation of SRF-dependent transcription using a GAL4-dependent promoter, we next tested if Elk-1 and p35-C/EBPβ could also synergize in transactivation of a native SRF binding site, namely the c-fos SRE.
Beads containing GST-p35-C/EBPβ or GST alone were incubated with in vitro -translated Elk-1 labeled with [ 35S] methionine.
One possible explanation for this result is that Ras increases the amount of p35-C/EBPβ or Elk-1 protein in the COS-7 cells, but Western blot analysis showed that both p35-C/EBPβ and Elk-1 protein levels are the same in the absence and presence of Ras (data not shown).
Interestingly, the in vivo interaction of Elk-1 and C/EBPβ is dependent on activation of Ras-dependent signaling pathways.
However, regardless of the extent of activation, in every experiment there was a synergy observed when both Elk-1 and p35-C/EBPβ are transfected in the presence of Ras.
