Biology:Serum response factor
Generic protein structure example |
Serum response factor, also known as SRF, is a transcription factor protein.[1]
Function
Serum response factor is a member of the MADS (MCM1, Agamous, Deficiens, and SRF) box superfamily of transcription factors.[2] This protein binds to the serum response element (SRE) in the promoter region of target genes. This protein regulates the activity of many immediate early genes, for example c-fos, and thereby participates in cell cycle regulation, apoptosis, cell growth, and cell differentiation. This gene is the downstream target of many pathways; for example, the mitogen-activated protein kinase pathway (MAPK) that acts through the ternary complex factors (TCFs).[3][4]
SRF is important during the development of the embryo, as it has been linked to the formation of mesoderm.[5][6] In the fully developed mammal, SRF is crucial for the growth of skeletal muscle.[7] Interaction of SRF with other proteins, such as steroid hormone receptors, may contribute to regulation of muscle growth by steroids.[8] Interaction of SRF with other proteins such as myocardin or Elk-1 may enhance or suppress expression of genes important for growth of vascular smooth muscle.
Clinical significance
Lack of skin SRF is associated with psoriasis and other skin diseases.[9]
Interactions
Serum response factor has been shown to interact with:
- ASCC3,[10]
- ATF6,[11]
- CEBPB,[12][13]
- CREB-binding protein,[14]
- ELK4,[11][15]
- GATA4,[16][17]

- Promyelocytic leukemia protein[14] and
- Src,[26] and
- TEAD1.[27]
