Background: EphA2 (Eph receptor tyrosine kinase A2) belongs to the Eph tyrosine receptor familiy, the largest receptor tyrosine kinase family of transmembrane proteins. It encodes a 130 kDA transmembrane protein which is primarily found in adult human epithelial cells (1). Eph receptors and their ephrin ligands are important mediators of cell-cell communication and play roles in embryonic patterning, neuronal targeting, and vascular development during normal embryogenesis (2,3). The Eph family of receptor tyrosine kinases is frequently overexpressed in a wide variety of cancers and tumor cell lines. In particular, EphA2 is overexpressed in prostate, lung and colon cancers and 40 % of breast cancers and it represent an attractive potential target for drug design (3,4).Synonyms: Eph receptor A2, Ephrin type-A receptor 2, Epithelial cell kinase, Tyrosine-protein kinase receptor ECK
