Ephrin-A3/EFNA3 Protein, Human (HEK293, His)
Ephrin-A3/EFNA3 proteins are cell surface GPI-binding ligands of Eph receptors and play a key role in regulating key cellular processes such as migration, repulsion, and adhesion during neuronal, vascular, and epithelial development. As a promiscuous binder, Ephrin-A3 binds to Eph receptors on neighboring cells, initiating contact-dependent bidirectional signaling to neighboring cells. Ephrin-A3/EFNA3 Protein, Human (HEK293, His) is the recombinant human-derived Ephrin-A3/EFNA3 protein, expressed by HEK293 , with C-6*His labeled tag.

Description

As a promiscuous binder, Ephrin-A3 binds to Eph receptors on neighboring cells, initiating contact-dependent bidirectional signaling to neighboring cells.

Background
Ephrin-A3 (EFNA3) is a cell surface glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)-bound ligand that plays a pivotal role in cellular interactions during development. It belongs to the Eph receptor family, a group of receptor tyrosine kinases crucial for processes such as migration, repulsion, and adhesion in neuronal, vascular, and epithelial tissues. EFNA3 exhibits promiscuous binding to Eph receptors on adjacent cells, initiating contact-dependent bidirectional signaling into neighboring cells. This bidirectional signaling involves the forward signaling pathway downstream of the receptor and the reverse signaling pathway downstream of the ephrin ligand. Furthermore, EFNA3 specifically interacts with EPHA8, activating the receptor and contributing to downstream signaling events.

It is not recommended to reconstitute to a concentration less than 100 μg/mL in ddH2O. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% BSA, 5% HSA, 10% FBS or 5% Trehalose).
Stored at -20°C for 2 years from date of receipt. After reconstitution, it is stable at 4°C for 1 week or -20°C for longer (with carrier protein). It is recommended to freeze aliquots at -20°C or -80°C for extended storage.
