The Soluble Heparin-Binding EGF-Like Growth Factor Stimulates EGF Receptor Trafficking to the Nucleus
Most ligands of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) have the ability to induce EGFR translocation into the nucleus, where EGFR acts as an important transcriptional regulator. Soluble form of heparin-binding EGF-like growth factor (sHB-EGF) is one of the ligands for EGFR in many cell types; however, there is no evidence for the ability of sHB-EGF to induce EGFR nuclear importation. Here, we ...
متن کاملActivation of insulin-epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor chimerae regulates EGF receptor binding affinity
Cell surface tyrosine kinase receptors are subject to a rapid activation by their ligand, which is followed by secondary regulatory processes. The IHE2 cell line is a unique model system to study the regulation of EGF binding to EGF receptors after activation of the EGF receptor kinase. IHE2 cells express both a chimeric insulin-EGF receptor kinase (IER) and a kinase-deficient EGF receptor (HER...
متن کاملParticipation of Tom1L1 in EGF-stimulated endocytosis of EGF receptor
Although many proteins have been shown to participate in ligand-stimulated endocytosis of EGF receptor (EGFR), the adaptor protein responsible for interaction of activated EGFR with endocytic machinery remains elusive. We show here that EGF stimulates transient tyrosine phosphorylation of Tom1L1 by the Src family kinases, resulting in transient interaction of Tom1L1 with the activated EGFR brid...
متن کاملEpidermal growth factor (EGF) promotes phosphorylation at threonine-654 of the EGF receptor: possible role of protein kinase C in homologous regulation of the EGF receptor
Treatment of cells with tumor-promoting phorbol diesters, which causes activation of protein kinase C, leads to phosphorylation of the epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor at threonine-654. Addition of phorbol diesters to intact cells causes inhibition of the EGF-induced tyrosine-protein kinase activity of the EGF receptor and it has been suggested that this effect of phorbol diesters is medi...
متن کاملPinning down the EGF receptor.
According to leading investigators in the field of cellular signal transduction, the epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor (EGFR, ErbB1, HER1), ubiquitously encountered in signaling mechanisms and thus in human tumors, is the best studied yet least prototypic of receptor tyrosine kinases in general (1). This perception arises primarily from the fact that activation of the EGFR is thought to be...
