Background
Ephrins, which act as ligands for Eph receptors, are cell-surface proteins which fall into two categories, ephrin-A and ephrin-B based on their structure and function. Ephrin-B proteins are transmembrane and have conserved cytoplasmic tyrosine residues that are phosphorylated upon interaction with an EphB receptor. Eph receptors and ephrins exhibit complementary expression in many tissues during embryogenesis indicating that bidirectional activation of Eph receptors and ephrin-B proteins may occur at expression domain interfaces. Ephrin-B1 transduces outside-in signals through C-terminal protein interactions that effect integrin-mediated cell attachment and migration. The distribution of ephrin-B1 in the developing retina suggests that it influences retinal axon mapping along the dorsal-ventral axis and may be involved in intratectal development.Synonyms: CEK5 LIgand, CEK5-L, EFL-3, EFL3, EFNB1, ELK-L, EPH-related receptor tyrosine kinase ligand 2, EPLG2, LERK-2, LERK2
