EphB2 Receptor (Ephrin B2 Receptor) (AP)
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
This gene encodes a member of the Eph receptor family of receptor tyrosine kinase transmembrane glycoproteins. These receptors are composed of an N-terminal glycosylated ligand-binding domain, a transmembrane region and an intracellular kinase domain. They bind ligands called ephrins and are involved in diverse cellular processes including motility, division, and differentiation. A distinguishing characteristic of Eph-ephrin signaling is that both receptors and ligands are competent to transduce a signaling cascade, resulting in bidirectional signaling. This protein belongs to a subgroup of the Eph receptors called EphB. Proteins of this subgroup are distinguished from other members of the family by sequence homology and preferential binding affinity for membrane-bound ephrin-B ligands. Allelic variants are associated with prostate and brain cancer susceptibility. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, May 2015]
Uniprot Description
EphB2: a receptor tyrosine kinase of the Eph family. A receptor for ephrin-B family members. Activated EphB2 recruits RasGAP, down-regulating the Ras-Erk signaling axis and neurite retraction. The Eph receptor tyrosine kinase family, the largest in the tyrosine kinase group, has fourteen members. They bind membrane-anchored ligands, ephrins, at sites of cell-cell contact, regulating the repulsion and adhesion of cells that underlie the establishment, maintenance, and remodeling of patterns of cellular organization. Eph signals are particularly important in regulating cell adhesion and cell migration during development, axon guidance, homeostasis and disease. EphA receptors bind to GPI-anchored ephrin-A ligands, while EphB receptors bind to ephrin-B proteins that have a transmembrane and cytoplasmic domain. Interactions between EphB receptor kinases and ephrin-B proteins transduce signals bidirectionally, signaling to both interacting cell types. Eph receptors and ephrins also regulate the adhesion of endothelial cells and are required for the remodeling of blood vessels. The ligand-activated form of EphB2 interacts with multiple proteins, including GTPase-activating protein (RASGAP) through its SH2 domain. Point mutations seen in prostate cancer. Overexpressed and required for migration of glioblastoma. Overexpressed and correlated with poor survival in breast cancer. Overexpression and loss of heterozygosity seen in colorectal cancers. Target for immunoconjugate drug therapy .Three splice-variant isoforms have been described.

Product Notes
The EPHB2 ephb2 (Catalog #AAA6257974) is an Antibody produced from Mouse and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The EphB2 Receptor (Ephrin B2 Receptor) (AP) reacts with Chicken, Human and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's EphB2 Receptor can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, ELISA (EIA), Immunoprecipitation (IP), Western Blot (WB). Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the EPHB2 ephb2 for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "EphB2 Receptor, Monoclonal Antibody" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
