Thyroid cancers showed strong nuclear staining with additional cytoplasmic positivity. A few cases of squamous cell carcinomas and ovarian cancers displayed moderate staining. Remaining malignant cells were weakly stained or negative.
GENE INFORMATION
Gene name
ELK4 (HGNC Symbol)
Synonyms
SAP1
Description
ELK4, ETS-domain protein (SRF accessory protein 1) (HGNC Symbol)
Entrez gene summary
This gene is a member of the Ets family of transcription factors and of the ternary complex factor (TCF) subfamily. Proteins of the TCF subfamily form a ternary complex by binding to the the serum response factor and the serum reponse element in the promoter of the c-fos proto-oncogene. The protein encoded by this gene is phosphorylated by the kinases, MAPK1 and MAPK8. Several transcript variants have been described for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
