Applications

Show applications key

Our Abpromise guarantee covers the use of ab30 in the following tested applications.

The application notes include recommended starting dilutions; optimal dilutions/concentrations should be determined by the end user.

Application notes

Is unsuitable for ,ELISA or WB.

Target

Function

Receptor for EGF, but also for other members of the EGF family, as TGF-alpha, amphiregulin, betacellulin, heparin-binding EGF-like growth factor, GP30 and vaccinia virus growth factor. Is involved in the control of cell growth and differentiation. Phosphorylates MUC1 in breast cancer cells and increases the interaction of MUC1 with SRC and CTNNB1/beta-catenin.
Isoform 2 may act as an antagonist of EGF action.

Tissue specificity

Ubiquitously expressed. Isoform 2 is also expressed in ovarian cancers.

Involvement in disease

Defects in EGFR are associated with lung cancer (LNCR) [MIM:211980].

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the protein kinase superfamily. Tyr protein kinase family. EGF receptor subfamily.
Contains 1 protein kinase domain.

Post-translational
modifications

Phosphorylation of Ser-695 is partial and occurs only if Thr-693 is phosphorylated.
Monoubiquitinated and polyubiquitinated upon EGF stimulation; which does not affect tyrosine kinase activity or signaling capacity but may play a role in lysosomal targeting. Polyubiquitin linkage is mainly through 'Lys-63', but linkage through 'Lys-48', 'Lys-11' and 'Lys-29' also occur.

Cellular localization

Secreted and Cell membrane. Endoplasmic reticulum membrane. Golgi apparatus membrane. Nucleus membrane. Endosome. In response to EGF, translocated from the cell membrane to the nucleus via Golgi and ER. Co-localizes with TNK2 on the endosomes.

ICC/IF image of ab30 stained HepG2 cells. The cells were 4% formaldehyde fixed (10 min) and then incubated in 1%BSA / 10% normal goat serum / 0.3M glycine in 0.1% PBS-Tween for 1h to permeabilise the cells and block non-specific protein-protein interactions. The cells were then incubated with the antibody (ab30, 1µg/ml) overnight at +4°C. The secondary antibody (green) was Alexa Fluor® 488 goat anti-mouse IgG (H+L) used at a 1/1000 dilution for 1h. Alexa Fluor® 594 WGA was used to label plasma membranes (red) at a 1/200 dilution for 1h. DAPI was used to stain the cell nuclei (blue) at a concentration of 1.43µM.

Overlay histogram showing HEK293 cells stained with ab30 (red line). The cells were incubated with the antibody (ab30, 1µg/1x106 cells) for 30 min at 4°C. The secondary antibody used was DyLight® 488 goat anti-mouse IgG (H+L) (ab96879) at 1/200 dilution for 30 min at 4°C. Isotype control antibody (black line) was mouse IgG2b [PLPV219] (ab91366, 2µg/1x106 cells) used under the same conditions. Acquisition of >5,000 events was performed.
Please note that 4% paraformaldehyde (10 min) or methanol (5 min) fixation prior to antibody staining significantly decreased signal.
