Immunocytochemistry/ Immunofluorescence - Anti-EGFR (phospho Y1068) antibody (AB5644)
Immunofluorescence analysis of A431 (Human epidermoid carcinoma cell line) cells labeling EGFR with ab5644 at 1/100 dilution, followed by Goat anti-rabbit IgG (H+L) Superclonal, Alexa Fluor® 488 conjugate was used as the secondary antibody at 1/2000 dilution (Panel a). Nuclei (Panel b) were stained with SlowFade® Gold Antifade Mountant with DAPI. F-actin (Panel c) was stained with Rhodamine Phalloidin. Panel (d) represents the merged image showing membrane localization. Panel (e) represents cells treated with antagonist, Afatinib (1μM for 6hrs) followed by EGF (200 ng/ml for 10 minutes), showing no Phospho-EGFR staining. Panel (f) shows untreated cells with no signal. Panel (g) represents control cells with no primary antibody to assess background.
The cells (in 70% confluent log phase treated with 200ng/ml of EGF for 10 minutes) were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde for 10 minutes; permeabilized with 0.1% Triton X-100 for 10 minutes and blocked with 1% BSA for hour at room temperature. The images were captured at 60X magnification.

Western blot - Anti-EGFR (phospho Y1068) antibody (AB5644)
Western blot analysis using ab5644 shows increased expression of proteins phosphorylated at the tyrosine residues in A-431 and A549 cell lines upon EGF treatment and pre-treatment with EGFR-antagonists, Gefitinib and Afatinib. This results in inhibition of Phospho-EGFR in A-431 and A549 cell lines

Biological function summary
The EGFR protein plays an important role in cellular communication and signaling processes. EGFR pairs with other receptor family members to form active dimers or even higher-order complexes which in turn initiate intracellular signaling cascades. Through these complexes EGFR influences many processes including cell differentiation and repair. This function of EGFR makes it an integral part of mammalian biology affecting how cells respond to their environment by mediating changes in gene expression.
Pathways
EGFR is a central player in the MAPK and PI3K/Akt signaling pathways. Alongside other protein partners like KRAS and PI3 kinase it contributes to transmitting signals from the cell surface to the nucleus affecting gene transcription and cell behavior. These pathways are important for normal cell growth and division and aberrations in these pathways can lead to excessive or insufficient cell proliferation.
