The epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR; Proto-oncogene c-ErbB-1) is a ubiquitously receptor tyrosine kinase that is activated by a variety of ligands including EGF, EPGN, TGFA, and EREG. Ligand-bound EGFR undergoes dimerization and autophosphorylation exposing cytoplasmic domains which allow interaction with adaptor proteins and induction of several signaling pathways including PI3-AKT; PLCγ-PKC; Notch1; and Ras-Raf. EGFR therefore contributes to a diverse range of cellular processes inlcuding cell proliferation. Several studies have reported that EGFR signaling plays an important role in the development of various tumors. EGFR is regulated by PTPRJ and PTPRK phosphatases, and by the endocytic machinery including EPS15 that mediates internalization and degradation of the receptor.
Immunogen
Partially purified human EGFR from A431 cells
Application
Anti-EGFR Antibody, clone 225 (Azide-free) is an antibody against EGFR for use in Immunoprecipitation, Neutralizing.
Neutralizing Assay Analysis: A representative lot was used by an independent laboratory in A431 cells. (Kawamoto, T., et al. (1984). Journal of Biological Chemistry. 259(12):7761-7766.)
Quality
Evaluated by Immunoprecipitation in A431 cell lysate.
Immunoprecipitation Analysis: 10 µg of this antibody immunoprecipitated EGFR from A431 cell lysate.
Target description
~170 kDa observed. Uniprot gives a calculated molecular weight of 135 but can be observed at ~170 kDa due to phosphorylation. (Konishi, A., et al. (2003). The Journal of Biological Chemistry. 278(37):35049–35056.)

The human epidermal growth factor receptor (HER) family of transmembrane tyrosine kinases is overexpressed and correlates with poor prognosis and decreased survival in many cancers. The receptor family has been therapeutically targeted, yet tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) do not inhibit
Herpesviruses persist indefinitely in their host through complex and poorly defined interactions that mediate latent, chronic or productive states of infection. Human cytomegalovirus (CMV or HCMV), a ubiquitous β-herpesvirus, coordinates the expression of two viral genes, UL135 and UL138, which
Non-genetic factors can cause individual cells to fluctuate substantially in gene expression levels over time. It remains unclear whether these fluctuations can persist for much longer than the time of one cell division. Current methods for measuring gene expression in

Allergic bronchopulmonary mycosis, characterized by excessive mucus secretion, airflow limitation, bronchiectasis, and peripheral blood eosinophilia, is predominantly caused by a fungal pathogen, Aspergillus fumigatus. Using DNA microarray analysis of NCI-H292 cells, a human bronchial epithelial cell line, stimulated with fungal
Cellular plasticity describes the ability of cells to transition from one set of phenotypes to another. In melanoma, transient fluctuations in the molecular state of tumor cells mark the formation of rare cells primed to survive BRAF inhibition and reprogram
