Target Details for EGFR

Target: EGFR (Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR))

Alternative Name: EGFR / ERBB1

Background: EGFR is a transmembrane glycoprotein that is a member of a family of protein tyrosine kinases crucial in maintaining a normal balance in cell growth and development. Growth factor receptors are involved not only in promoting the proliferation of normal cells but also in the aberrant growth of many types of human tumors. For example, the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) is mutated and/or overexpressed in many common solid human squamous cell carcinomas including breast, brain, bladder, lung, gastric, head & neck, esophagus, cervix, vulva, ovary, and endometrium. Overexpression of the EGFR gene occurs in carcinomas with and without gene amplification. EGFR and erbB-2 are particularly important in breast cancer because increased production or activation has been associated with poor prognosis. EGFR belongs to a family of growth factor receptors, which also includes ErbB-2/HER-2/neu, ErbB-3/HER-3/neu and ErbB-4/HER-4neu. EGFR can heterodimerize with each of the members of this family.Synonyms: EGF Receptor, Epidermal growth factor receptor, Proto-oncogene c-ErbB-1, Receptor tyrosine-protein kinase erbB-1, c-ErbB-1, erbB-1
