Anti-EREG Antibody Picoband®

This gene encodes a secreted peptide hormone and member of the epidermal growth factor (EGF) family of proteins. The encoded protein is a ligand of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and the structurally related erb-b2 receptor tyrosine kinase 4 (ERBB4) . The encoded protein may be involved in a wide range of biological processes including inflammation, wound healing, oocyte maturation, and cell proliferation. Additionally, the encoded protein may promote the progression of cancers of various human tissues.

E.coli-derived human EREG recombinant protein (Position: F24-V169) . Human EREGshares 84.1% and 83.4% amino acid (aa) sequence identity with mouse and rat EREG, respectively.
