This protein has a mass of approximately 175 kDa and is known for its role in cell signaling. Pro-EGF is expressed in various tissues including the kidney salivary glands and the gastrointestinal tract. Upon cleavage it releases the smaller active form of EGF which then modulates numerous cellular processes by binding to the EGF receptor (EGFR).\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nPro-EGF plays a critical role in cellular growth and differentiation. Through its conversion to active EGF it interacts with the EGF receptor initiating a cascade of signaling events. This process regulates processes such as inflammation wound healing and embryonic development. Pro-EGF does not form part of a higher-order complex but acts through interactions with its receptor to elicit biological responses.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nPro-EGF's function is integral to the MAPK\/ERK signaling pathway. It activates this pathway through EGFR binding promoting cellular proliferation and differentiation processes. Pro-EGF also participates in the PI3K\/AKT signaling pathway influencing cell survival and growth. Its interaction with EGFR is closely related to other growth factors like TGF-alpha which share the same receptor binding activity.\u003cbr\u003e\nPro-EGF has been linked to cancer and wound healing disorders. Dysregulation of EGF signaling often due to overexpression or mutation of EGFR contributes to various cancers like non-small cell lung cancer. Pro-EGF's connection with EGFR is also critical in chronic wounds where impaired signaling can delay healing. Understanding these interactions helps inform therapeutic strategies targeting EGFR in cancer and regenerative medicine.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46850448490665,"sku":"ab206106","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/abcam-ab206106","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
