Title: Cellular and viral ligands that interact with the EGF receptor. Author: Todaro GJ, Rose TM, Spooner CE, Shoyab M, Plowman GD. Journal: Semin Cancer Biol; 1990 Aug; 1(4):257-63. PubMed ID: 2103500. Abstract: The growth regulatory functions of a family of structurally related polypeptides are mediated through the membrane-bound epidermal growth factor receptor molecule. This ligand family includes epidermal growth factor, transforming growth factor-alpha, amphiregulin, and polypeptides encoded by several poxviruses. The structural and functional properties that are characteristic of the ligand family provide a basis for possible evolutionary relationships among the various ligands.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
