Invitrogen™ EGFR Polyclonal Antibody

Rabbit Polyclonal Antibody

Supplier:  Invitrogen™ PA11110

Catalog No. PA1-1110

Description

PA1-1110 detects EGFR from human, non-human primate (monkey), mouse, and rat samples. PA1-1110 has been successfully used in Western blot, immunoprecipitation, immunohistochemistry, and immunofluorescence procedures. By Western blot, this antibody detects ~190 kDa protein representing EGFR from human HeLa cell extract. The PA1-1110 immunogen is a synthetic peptide corresponding to residues C L(1198) R V A P Q S S E F I G A(1210) of human EGFR.

EGFR, epidermal growth factor receptor, is a receptor tyrosine kinases that signals in response to various growth factors. Overexpression has been linked to numerous types of cancer and EGFR is the target of both biological and small molecular therapeutics. EGFR is encoded by the EGFR gene located on chromosome 7 in humans. EGFR belongs to the HER/ERbB family of proteins that includes three other receptor tyrosine kinases, ERbB2, ERbB3, ERbB4. EGFR is a transmembrane receptor and binding of its cognate ligands such as EGF (Epidermal Growth Factor) and TGF alpha (Transforming Growth Factor alpha) to the extracellular domain leads to EGFR dimerization followed by autophosphorylation of the tyrosine residues in the cytoplasmic domain. Overexpression is observed in tumors of the head and neck, brain, bladder, stomach, breast, lung, endometrium, cervix, vulva, ovary, esophagus, stomach and in squamous cell carcinoma.
