EphA7 Protein, Human (HEK293, His)

Customer Review

Based on 1 Customer Validation

The EphA7 protein is a receptor tyrosine kinase that promiscuously binds to the GPI-anchored ephrin-A ligand to initiate bidirectional signaling. It participates in forward and reverse signaling pathways, uses EFNA5 as a functional ligand, regulates brain development and affects cell adhesion and repulsion. EphA7 Protein, Human (HEK293, His) is the recombinant human-derived EphA7 protein, expressed by HEK293 , with C-6*His labeled tag.

Biological Activity

Description

The EphA7 protein is a receptor tyrosine kinase that promiscuously binds to the GPI-anchored ephrin-A ligand to initiate bidirectional signaling. It participates in forward and reverse signaling pathways, uses EFNA5 as a functional ligand, regulates brain development and affects cell adhesion and repulsion. EphA7 Protein, Human (HEK293, His) is the recombinant human-derived EphA7 protein, expressed by HEK293 , with C-6*His labeled tag.

Background

The EphA7 protein, a receptor tyrosine kinase, engages in promiscuous binding to GPI-anchored ephrin-A family ligands on adjacent cells, initiating contact-dependent bidirectional signaling. The downstream pathway originating from the receptor is termed forward signaling, while the pathway downstream of the ephrin ligand is referred to as reverse signaling. Among the GPI-anchored ephrin-A ligands, EFNA5 serves as a cognate/functional ligand for EPHA7, regulating brain development and modulating cell-cell adhesion and repulsion. EphA7 exhibits repellent activity on axons, playing a crucial role in guiding corticothalamic axons and ensuring the proper topographic mapping of retinal axons to the colliculus. Additionally, EphA7 may contribute to brain development through a caspase (CASP3)-dependent proapoptotic activity. Forward signaling through EphA7 may result in the activation of components of the ERK signaling pathway, including MAP2K1, MAP2K2, MAPK1, and MAPK3, which are phosphorylated upon EphA7 activation.
