General description

Monoclonal Anti-EGFR (mouse IgG1 isotype) is derived from the hybridoma 225 produced by the fusion of mouse myeloma cells (NS-1-503 cells) and splenocytes from BALB/c mice immunized with partially purified EGF receptors from A-431 cells. The receptor for epidermal growth factor (EGF) is an integral cell membrane glycoprotein of 170 kDa, which spans the membranes of a wide range of normal and malignant epithelial cells. The EGF receptor has an intracellular domain that exhibits tyrosine kinase activity.

Immunogen

partially purified EGF receptors from human A-431 cells.

Application

Monoclonal Anti-EGF Receptor antibody has been used in antibody-nanoparticle conjugation.
Monoclonal Anti-EGF Receptor antibody is suitable for use in immunoprecipitation (4-8 μg using cell lysate of A431 cells).

Biochem/physiol Actions

EGFR (epidermal growth factor receptors) protein tyrosine kinase is activated when EGF binds the extracellular binding domain. The first detectable response is the autophosphorylation of the C-terminal tyrosine followed by phosphorylation of other endogenous substrates.
EGFR is a tyrosine kinase receptor that regulates cellular several functions such as growth, blood vessel formation, metastasis and invasion. Alterations in EGFR expression have been associated with a wide range of cancers. Thus, drugs that target EGFR signaling have important therapeutic applications in cancer .

Physical form

0.2 μm filtered solution in 0.01 M phosphate buffered saline, pH 7.4.

Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is a three-dimensional optical imaging technique that has been successfully implemented in ophthalmology for imaging the human retina, and in studying animal models of disease. OCT can nondestructively visualize structural features in tissue at cellular-level resolution
