Product details
Abcam's EGF (Epidermal growth factor) Mouse ELISA (Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay) kit is an in vitro enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for the quantitative measurement of Mouse EGF in serum, plasma and cell culture supernatants.
This assay employs an antibody specific for mouse EGF coated on a 96- well plate. Standards and samples are pipetted into the wells and EGF present in a sample is bound to the wells by the immobilized antibody. The wells are washed and biotinylated anti-mouse EGF antibody is added. After washing away unbound biotinylated antibody, HRP-conjugated streptavidin is pipetted to the wells. The wells are again washed, a TMB substrate solution is added to the wells and color develops in proportion to the amount of EGF bound. The Stop Solution changes the color from blue to yellow, and the intensity of the color is measured at 450 nm.

Biological function summary
The epidermal growth factor plays a pivotal role in the regulation of cell signaling. It functions outside a complex interacting mainly with EGFR located on the cell surface. Upon ligand binding EGF induces the receptor dimerization leading to autophosphorylation which activates intrinsic intracellular signaling cascades. This activation is critical for cellular responses such as DNA synthesis and the progression of the cell cycle. EGF recombinant proteins such as HEGF are utilized in laboratories to examine its biological activity meticulously.
Pathways
EGF engages in key cellular pathways that mediate various essential functions. It significantly activates the MAPK and PI3K-AKT signaling pathways which govern processes such as cell division and survival. These pathways require the participation of several other proteins including Ras Raf and PDK1 which help modulate their downstream effects. The interplay of EGF with associated proteins highlights its importance in maintaining proper signaling dynamics necessary for healthy cellular function. EGF ELISA kits as well as EGF ELISAs are tools developed for robust analysis of its pathway interactions in research and clinical settings.
