TAT-DEF-Elk-1 TFA (1220751-16-5 free base)

Description: TAT-DEF-Elk-1 TFA is a cell-penetrating peptide Elk-1 inhibitor, mimics and specifically interferes with the DEF domain of Elk-1. TAT-DEF-Elk-1 blocks Elk-1 phosphorylation and prevents Elk-1 nuclear translocation without interfering with ERK nor MSK1 activation. TAT-DEF-Elk-1 is a useful tool to analyze the role of Elk-1 in this process during the development of neuronal plasticity. Target: Others. References: Lavaur J, et al.
