Introduction
EPH Receptor A2 (EPHA2) is a member of the ephrin receptor subfamily of the protein-tyrosine kinase family. EPHA2 is a protein which binds ephrin-A ligands. EPH and EPH-related receptors are associated with mediating developmental events, particularly in the nervous system. Receptors in the EPH subfamily normally have a single kinase domain and an extracellular region containing a Cys-rich domain and 2 fibronectin type III repeats. The ephrin receptors are divided into two groups based on the similarity of their extracellular domain sequences and their affinities for binding ephrin-A and ephrin-B ligands. EPHA2 gene mutations are the cause of certain genetically-related cataract disorders.
Description
EPHA2 Human Recombinant produced in Sf9 Baculovirus cells is a single, glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 520 amino acids (27-537) and having a molecular mass of 57.3kDa (Molecular size on SDS-PAGE will appear at approximately 50-70kDa).
EPHA2 is fused to 6 amino acid His-Tag at C-terminus and purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
Source
Sf9, Baculovirus cells.
