ELK-1 is a transcription factor involved in ERK-induced cellular proliferation. Here we show that its transcriptional activity is modulated by ubiquitination at lysine 35 (K35). The level of ubiquitinated ELK-1 rises in mitogen-deprived cells and fal... Read More about De-ubiquitination of ELK-1 by USP17 potentiates mitogenic gene expression and cell proliferation.
