Descriptions
ELK3 (Net) belongs to a subfamily of ETS domain transcription factors. Its characteristic property is the ability to form a ternary nucleoprotein complex with the serum response factor (SRF) over the serum response element (SRE) of the c-fos promoter. Net contains two inhibitory domains, the net inhibitory domain (NID) and the C-terminal binding protein (CtBP) inhibition domain (CID). The NID is an autonomous inhibitory domain that lies adjacent to the B box and inhibits both transactivation and specific DNA binding. The NID is predicted to adopt a helix-loop-helix (HLH) structure that inhibits DNA binding in cis. The CID is a CtBP binding motif, which interacts with the corepressor CtBP1 (E1A C-terminal binding protein). The CID inhibits transcription by recruiting CtBP, which acts as a corepressor through a mechanism that appears to involve recruitment of histone deacetylase (HDAC) and de-acetylation of chromatin.

3 GO annotations of cellular component
Name | Definition |
---|---|
mitochondrion | A semiautonomous, self replicating organelle that occurs in varying numbers, shapes, and sizes in the cytoplasm of virtually all eukaryotic cells. It is notably the site of tissue respiration. |
nucleoplasm | That part of the nuclear content other than the chromosomes or the nucleolus. |
nucleus | A membrane-bounded organelle of eukaryotic cells in which chromosomes are housed and replicated. In most cells, the nucleus contains all of the cell's chromosomes except the organellar chromosomes, and is the site of RNA synthesis and processing. In some species, or in specialized cell types, RNA metabolism or DNA replication may be absent. |
8 GO annotations of molecular function
Name | Definition |
---|---|
DNA binding | Any molecular function by which a gene product interacts selectively and non-covalently with DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid). |
DNA-binding transcription activator activity, RNA polymerase II-specific | A DNA-binding transcription factor activity that activates or increases transcription of specific gene sets transcribed by RNA polymerase II. |
DNA-binding transcription factor activity | A transcription regulator activity that modulates transcription of gene sets via selective and non-covalent binding to a specific double-stranded genomic DNA sequence (sometimes referred to as a motif) within a cis-regulatory region. Regulatory regions include promoters (proximal and distal) and enhancers. Genes are transcriptional units, and include bacterial operons. |
DNA-binding transcription factor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific | A DNA-binding transcription factor activity that modulates the transcription of specific gene sets transcribed by RNA polymerase II. |
DNA-binding transcription repressor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific | A DNA-binding transcription factor activity that represses or decreases the transcription of specific gene sets transcribed by RNA polymerase II. |
purine-rich negative regulatory element binding | Binding to a 30-bp purine-rich negative regulatory element; the best characterized such element is found in the first intronic region of the rat cardiac alpha-myosin heavy chain gene, and contains two palindromic high-affinity Ets-binding sites (CTTCCCTGGAAG). The presence of this element restricts expression of the gene containing it to cardiac myocytes. |
RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding | Binding to a specific upstream regulatory DNA sequence (transcription factor recognition sequence or binding site) located in cis relative to the transcription start site (i.e., on the same strand of DNA) of a gene transcribed by RNA polymerase II. |
sequence-specific double-stranded DNA binding | Binding to double-stranded DNA of a specific nucleotide composition, e.g. GC-rich DNA binding, or with a specific sequence motif or type of DNA, e.g. promotor binding or rDNA binding. |
7 GO annotations of biological process
Name | Definition |
---|---|
angiogenesis | Blood vessel formation when new vessels emerge from the proliferation of pre-existing blood vessels. |
cell differentiation | The process in which relatively unspecialized cells, e.g. embryonic or regenerative cells, acquire specialized structural and/or functional features that characterize the cells, tissues, or organs of the mature organism or some other relatively stable phase of the organism's life history. Differentiation includes the processes involved in commitment of a cell to a specific fate and its subsequent development to the mature state. |
negative regulation of transcription, DNA-templated | Any process that stops, prevents, or reduces the frequency, rate or extent of cellular DNA-templated transcription. |
positive regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II | Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of transcription from an RNA polymerase II promoter. |
regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II | Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of transcription mediated by RNA polymerase II. |
regulation of transcription, DNA-templated | Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of cellular DNA-templated transcription. |
wound healing | The series of events that restore integrity to a damaged tissue, following an injury. |
