Background
Elk-1 is a transcription factor involved in mediating gene transcription in response to growth factors (Hill and Treisman, 1995). Elk-1 is thought to be phosphorylated by MAP kinase at Ser383 and phosphorylation at this site is essential for the transcriptional activity of Elk-1 (Li et al., 2003). Phosphorylation of Elk-1 has also been implicated in synaptic plasticity in the adult hippocampus (Thiels et al., 2002). Anti-Phospho Ser383 Elk-1 Western blot of recombinant Elk-1 showing specific immunolabeling of the ~46k Elk-1 phosphorylated at Ser383 (Phos). The immunolabeling is absent in dephospho-Elk-1 (Non-Phos).
