Summary: Enables sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Contributes to RNA polymerase II transcription regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Involved in several processes, including egg-laying behavior; negative regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II; and vulval development. Located in nucleus. Part of RNA polymerase II transcription repressor complex. Is expressed in body wall musculature; non-striated muscle; reproductive system; and vulval precursor cell. Orthologous to several human genes including ELK1 (ETS transcription factor ELK1). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]

What's a GeneRIF?

we investigate orthologs of a transcription complex that acts in mammalian EGFR signaling-lin-1/Elk1, sur-2/Med23, and the Cdk8 Kinase module (CKM).our analysis using cell fate reporters reveals that both EGFR and LIN-12/Notch signal transduction pathways are active in all VPCs in lin-1/Elk1 mutants
Title: Integration of EGFR and LIN-12/Notch Signaling by LIN-1/Elk1, the Cdk8 Kinase Module, and SUR-2/Med23 in Vulval Precursor Cell Fate Patterning in Caenorhabditis elegans.
A model is proposed in which LIN-1 recruits multiple transcriptional repressors to inhibit the 1 degrees vulval cell fate, and phosphorylation by ERK converts LIN-1 to a transcriptional activator that promotes the 1 degrees vulval cell fate.
Title: Conversion of the LIN-1 ETS protein of Caenorhabditis elegans from a SUMOylated transcriptional repressor to a phosphorylated transcriptional activator.
Data show that loss-of-function mutations of moc-3 and dph-3 effectively suppress the Multivulva (Muv) phenotype of the lin-1(e1275, R175Opal) mutation.
Title: Allele-specific suppressors of lin-1(R175Opal) identify functions of MOC-3 and DPH-3 in tRNA modification complexes in Caenorhabditis elegans.

Title: Sumoylation of LIN-1 promotes transcriptional repression and inhibition of vulval cell fates.
The identification of multiple mutations that reduce the function of lin-1 as an inhibitor of the primary vulval cell fate and also reduce DNA binding suggest that DNA binding is essential for LIN-1 function in Caenorhabditis.
Title: Identification of residues of the Caenorhabditis elegans LIN-1 ETS domain that are necessary for DNA binding and regulation of vulval cell fates.
lin-1 is required positively for the proper expression of several genes regulated by the pathway in cells adopting the 1 degrees cell fate.
Title: lin-1 has both positive and negative functions in specifying multiple cell fates induced by Ras/MAP kinase signaling in C. elegans.
the interaction between LIN-1 and LET-418/Mi-2 may link RTK/Ras signaling with chromatin remodeling and gene expression
Title: The Mi-2 nucleosome-remodeling protein LET-418 is targeted via LIN-1/ETS to the promoter of lin-39/Hox during vulval development in C. elegans.
