Epidermal growth factor: high and low molecular weight forms.
In crude homogenates of the submaxillary gland of the male mouse, epidermal growth factor (EGF) activity was found almost entirely in a high molecular weight complex (about 74,000 daltons). This high molecular weight form may be reversibly dissociated into EGF and an EGF-binding protein. EGF was found to have a molecular weight of approximately 6400. The EGF-binding protein has a molecular weig...
متن کاملFunctional and Molecular Characterization of C91S Mutation in the Second Epidermal Growth Factor-like Domain of Factor VII
Background: Coagulation Factor VII is a vitamin K-dependent serine protease which has a pivotal role in the initiation of the coagulation cascade. The congenital Factor VII deficiency is a recessive hemorrhagic disorder that occurs due to mutations of F7 gene. In the present study C91S (p.C91S) substitution was detected in a patient with FVII deficiency. This mutation has not b...
متن کاملAltered Expression of Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR) in Glioma
EGFR is a key molecule in cancer cells. EGFR signaling was shown to promote tumor cell proliferation and survival, invasion and angiogenesis and mediate resistance to treatment, including ionizing radiation in preclinical models. We extracted proteins from astrocytoma (III and IV) oligodendroglioma(IV) tumors and normal brain tissues and then evaluated the protein purity by Bradford test ...
متن کاملHigh molecular mass forms of basic fibroblast growth factor are initiated by alternative CUG codons.
A 6.75-kilobase human hepatoma-derived basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) cDNA was cloned and sequenced. An amino-terminal sequence generated from a purified hepatoma bFGF was found to correspond to the nucleotide sequence and to begin 8 amino acids upstream from the putative methionine start codon thought to initiate a 154-amino acid bFGF translation product. This sequence suggests that a f...
متن کاملAssessment of epidermal growth factor receptor status in glioblastomas
Objective(s): Our previous study showed that a newly designed tracer radioiodinated 6-(3-morpholinopropoxy)-7-ethoxy-4-(3'-iodophenoxy)quinazoline ([125I]PYK) is promising for the evaluation of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) status and prediction of gefitinib treatment of non-small cell lung cancer. EGFR is over-expressed and mutated also in glioblastoma. In the present study, the ...
