Additional Information: This antibody is expected to recognize all reported isoforms (NP_001954.2; NP_001171601.1; NP_001171602.1), but not the mature form. The immunizing peptide represents part of the extracellular domain.
This antibody is tested in Peptide ELISA: antibody detection limit dilution 1:128,000.
Epidermal growth factor has a profound effect on the differentiation of specific cells in vivo and is a potent mitogenic factor for a variety of cultured cells of both ectodermal and mesodermal origin. The EGF precursor is believed to exist as a membrane-bound molecule which is proteolytically cleaved to generate the 53-amino acid peptide hormone that stimulates cells to divide.
