Background:
The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the epidermal growth factor family. Members of this family are ligands for the epidermal growth factor receptor and play a role in cell survival, proliferation and migration. This protein has been reported to have high mitogenic activity but low affinity for its receptor. Expression of this transcript and protein have been reported in cancer specimens of the breast, bladder, and prostate. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.
Synonyms:
epithelial mitogen
UniProt Protein Function:
Epigen: Promotes the growth of epithelial cells. May stimulate the phosphorylation of EGFR and mitogen-activated protein kinases. 7 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.Protein type: Membrane protein, integral; Ligand, receptor tyrosine kinaseChromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 4q13.3Cellular Component: extracellular space; integral to plasma membrane; intracellularMolecular Function: epidermal growth factor receptor binding; growth factor activityBiological Process: activation of MAPK activity; angiogenesis; epidermal growth factor receptor signaling pathway; MAPKKK cascade; positive regulation of cell proliferation; positive regulation of epidermal growth factor receptor activity; positive regulation of epithelial cell proliferation; positive regulation of MAP kinase activity; positive regulation of mitosis
