NCBI Description

acts as an EGF receptor ligand; inhibits apoptosis that results from epithelial detachment from the extracellular matrix [RGD, Feb 2006]

Uniprot Description

TGFalpha: TGF alpha is a mitogenic polypeptide that is able to bind to the EGF receptor/EGFR and to act synergistically with TGF beta to promote anchorage-independent cell proliferation in soft agar. Interacts with the PDZ domains of MAGI3, SDCBP and SNTA1. The interaction with SDCBP, is required for the targeting to the cell surface. In the endoplasmic reticulum, in its immature form (i.e. with a prosegment and lacking full N-glycosylation), interacts with CNIH. In the Golgi apparatus, may form a complex with CNIH and GORASP2. Interacts (via cytoplasmic C-terminal domain) with NKD2. Isoform 1, isoform 3 and isoform 4 are expressed in keratinocytes and tumor-derived cell lines. 5 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.

Protein type: Membrane protein, integral; Cell cycle regulation; Ligand, receptor tyrosine kinase; Motility/polarity/chemotaxis

Cellular Component: basolateral plasma membrane; cell surface; cytoplasmic vesicle; extracellular space; integral to plasma membrane; nucleus; perinuclear region of cytoplasm; plasma membrane

Molecular Function: epidermal growth factor receptor binding; glycoprotein binding; growth factor activity

Biological Process: activation of MAPK activity; angiogenesis; epidermal growth factor receptor signaling pathway; negative regulation of apoptosis; negative regulation of cellular process; positive regulation of cell proliferation; positive regulation of epidermal growth factor receptor activity; positive regulation of epithelial cell proliferation; positive regulation of mitosis; response to drug; wound healing

Product Notes

The Rat Tgfa tgfa (Catalog #AAA2881232) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA2881232 ELISA Kit recognizes Rat Tgfa. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Protransforming growth factor alpha, ELISA Kit" 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.
