Biochem/physiol Actions
The epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) is a transmembrane glycoprotein and belongs to erbB family of tyrosine kinase receptors. It binds to its cognate ligands that leads to autophosphorylation of receptor tyrosine kinase and subsequent activation of signal transduction pathways that are involved in regulating cellular proliferation, differentiation and survival. EGFR is overexpressed in tumor cell lines and is associated with poor prognosis leading to decreased survival. Its activation also plays a role in resistance to chemotherapy and radiation treatment in tumor cells. EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) may act as a new treatment option for advanced lung adenocarcinoma. Its ligands function in the Drosophila CNS and maintains glial survival. Drosophila EGF receptor plays a critical role during the development of Drosophila retina.

The non-autonomous control of cell survival has long been thought to be a mechanism of adjusting cell populations in the vertebrate nervous system, enabling connectivity and myelination to produce a functional brain. Despite cellular evidence that analogous mechanisms occur in

Developing epithelia use a variety of patterning mechanisms to place individual cells into their correct positions. However, the means by which pattern elements are established are poorly understood. Here, we report evidence that regulation of Drosophila EGF receptor (DER) activity
