Western blot analysis of Elf-4 expression in non-transfected: (A) and human Elf-4 transfected: (B) 293T whole cell lysates and HeLa nuclear extract (C).
The Ets-1 family of transcription factors has a conserved DNA binding domain through which it plays an important role in cellular proliferation, differentiation, tematopoiesis and angiogenesis. This domain, also known as the Ets domain, binds to DNA sequences containing the consensus sequence 5'-WGGA-3’, which is known as the Ets-binding domain. Elf-4, also known as myeloid Elf-1-like factor, ELF4 or MEF, is a 663 amino acid member of the Ets-1 family. Localized to the nucleus, Elf-4 is highly expressed in placenta and myeloid leukemia cells, with lower levels of expression lung, heart, thymus, slpeen, colon, ovary and peripheral blood lymphocytes. Functioning primarily to activate the promoters of hematopoietic growth factor genes, such as GM-CSF, IL-3 and IL-8, Elf-4 has also been shown to activate the Perforin 1 promoter in natural killer (NK) cells, suggesting a possible role in tumorigenesis.
