ETS domain-containing protein Elk-4 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the ELK4 gene.^[5][6][7]

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 serum response factor and the serum response 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.^[7]

ELK4 has been shown to interact with:

• BRCA1,^[8] and
• Serum response factor^[9][10]
