Anti-EGF Antibody - BSA and Azide free (A282983)

Anti-EGF Antibody - BSA and Azide free

Rabbit polyclonal antibody to EGF.

This antibody recognises rat EGF (Epidermal Growth Factor), a type I transmembrane protein expressed by a variety of cells, which acts as a potent stimulator and regulator of the proliferation of epidermal and epithelial cells, and is a key factor in cell survival.The effects of EGF are initiated through tyrosine kinase activity, following the binding of EGF to the extracellular domain of the EGF receptor (EGFR), which results in the triggering of several signal transduction pathways, including the JAK/STAT and P13K/AKT pathways.
