Target Details for TGFA

Target: TGFA (Transforming Growth Factor, alpha (TGFA))

Alternative Name: TGF alpha

Background: TGF alpha is a growth factor with 33 % homology to EGF, binds to EGFR, activates tyrosine phosphorylation of the receptor, and stimulates cell proliferation. It plays a role in tumor initiation by inducing the reversible transformed phenotype. This antibody reacts with the C-terminus of TGF alpha and shows no cross-reaction with EGF and the neuropeptide synenkephalin. Staining with the antibody is completely blocked by the peptide used for raising this antibody.

Pathways: NF-kappaB Signaling, RTK Signaling, EGFR Signaling Pathway
