Gene Information

human ... EFNA1(1942)

General description

EphrinA1 (EFNA1), also known as angiogenesis factor, is encoded by the gene mapped to human chromosome 1q21-22. The encoded protein belongs to subclass A of ephrin family. EFNA1 is localized to cell membrane via a glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) moiety. EFNA1 ligand preferentially binds to the receptor tyrosine kinase, Eph receptor 2 (EphA2).

Immunogen

The antiserum was produced against synthesized peptide derived from human EFNA1.

Immunogen Range: 66-115

Application

Anti-EFNA1 antibody produced in rabbit has been used in western blot analysis.

Biochem/physiol Actions

EphrinA1 (EFNA1) and its primary receptor, Eph receptor 2 (EphA2) are associated with various cancers, such as urinary bladder carcinoma, breast cancer gastric cancer, glioma and malignant mesothelioma. Expression pattern of EFNA1 can be used as a potential prognostic marker in colorectal cancer (CRC) patients and other human malignancies. Experimental studies state that, EphrinA1 (EFNA1) can be involved in both tumor promotion and inhibition, based on whether ephrin-A1 is bound to the receptor in soluble or membrane bound form, respectively. Activation of EphA2, induces indirect growth signal by overcoming ‘contact inhibition′.

The genes encoding the eph-related receptor tyrosine kinase ligands LERK-1 (EPLG1, Epl1), LERK-3 (EPLG3, Epl3), and LERK-4 (EPLG4, Epl4) are clustered on human chromosome 1 and mouse chromosome 3.

Ephrin A1 (EFNA1) is a GPI-anchored ligand that preferentially binds to the receptor tyrosine kinase, EphA2. EphA2 is over-expressed in malignant melanocytes and in prostate carcinoma cells. Whether activation of EphA2 by EFNA1 is involved in aberrant growth or differentiation
