Application
Extracts of A431 cells unstimulated (1) or stimulated with 200 ng/mL EGF for 15 minutes (2-5), were probed with the EGFR [pY1068] antibody following prior incubation with: no peptide (1 and 2), the non-phosphopeptide corresponding to the phosphopeptide immunogen (3), a generic phosphotyrosine-containing peptide (4) or the phosphopeptide immunogen (5). The data show that only the phosphopeptide corresponding to EGFR [pY1068] blocks the antibody signal, demonstrating the specificity of the antibody. The data also show the induction of EGFR [pY1068] phosphorylation by the addition of EGF to this cell system.| Product Name | EGFR (phospho Tyr1068) antibody |

| Product description | Rabbit polyclonal to EGFR ( phospho Y1068 )Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor, (EGFR, a 185 kDa glycoprotein) is a transmembrane tyrosine kinase that regulates a variety of biological responses ranging from mitogenesis to stress signaling. The EGFR consists of a large extracellular domain, a single transmembrane domain and a cytoplasmic domain that exhibits kinase activity. Upon binding of EGF to the extracellular domain, the receptor undergoes dimerization and becomes phosphorylated on several tyrosine residues within the cytoplasmic domain. These events result in EGFR activation and increased tyrosine kinase activity toward a variety of intracellular substrates. Tyrosine 1068 within the cytoplasmic domain of the receptor is an autophosphorylation site that allows binding of Grb2 and activation of the Ras, Raf, ERK1&2 signaling pathway. |
