ELF4

Gene
ELF4
Protein
ETS-related transcription factor Elf-4
Organism
Homo sapiens
Length
663 amino acids
Function
Transcriptional activator that binds to DNA sequences containing the consensus 5'-WGGA-3'. Transactivates promoters of the hematopoietic growth factor genes CSF2, IL3, IL8, and of the bovine lysozyme gene. Acts synergistically with RUNX1 to transactivate the IL3 promoter (By similarity). Also transactivates the PRF1 promoter in natural killer (NK) cells. Plays a role in the development and function of NK and NK T-cells and in innate immunity. Controls the proliferation and homing of CD8+ T-cells via the Kruppel-like factors KLF4 and KLF2 (By similarity). Controls cell senescence in a p53-dependent manner. Can also promote cellular transformation through inhibition of the p16 pathway.
Similarity
Belongs to the ETS family.

Protein
Protein EARLY FLOWERING 4
Organism
Arabidopsis thaliana
Length
111 amino acids
Function
Component of the central CCA1/LHY-TOC1 feedback loop in the circadian clock that promotes clock accuracy and is required for sustained rhythms in the absence of daily light/dark cycles. Part of a corepressor complex consisting of ELF4, ELF3, and LUX involved in the transcriptional regulation of APRR9. Increases ELF3 nuclear distribution and localization in nuclear bodies. Required for responsiveness to continuous red, by regulating phytochrome B (phyB) signaling (including during seedling de-etiolation) and gene expression. Mediates both entrainment to an environmental cycle and circadian rhythm sustainability under constant conditions. Controls flowering time. Necessary for light-induced expression of both CCA1 and LHY.
Similarity
Belongs to the EARLY FLOWERING 4 family.
