Immunogens

Immunogen:

A synthetic peptide from human TGF alpha

Uniprot:
Gene(ID):
Expression:
P01135 TGFA_HUMAN:

Isoform 1, isoform 3 and isoform 4 are expressed in keratinocytes and tumor-derived cell lines.

Description:
This gene encodes a growth factor that is a ligand for the epidermal growth factor receptor,which activates a signaling pathway for cell proliferation,differentiation and development. This protein may act as either a transmembrane-bound ligand or a soluble ligand. This gene has been associated with many types of cancers,and it may also be involved in some cases of cleft lip,palate. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.
