Recombinant Human EPH Receptor A2, GST-tagged, Active

• Cat.No.: EPHA2-300H
• Product Overview: Recombinant human EPHA2 (561-end) was expressed by baculovirus inSf9 insect cellsusing an N-terminal GST tag. MW=72kDa.

Specification

• Species: Human
• Source: Sf9 Cells
• Tag: GST
• Protein Length: 561-end a.a.
• Description: EPHA2 is a member of the ephrin receptor subfamily of protein-tyrosine kinases that bind the ephrin-A ligand and have diverse cellular function. EPHA2 has been shown to be an oncoprotein of importance in a range of cancers. EPHA2 is overexpressed in several human cancer types and promotes malignancy through a mechanism involving RhoA-dependent destabilization of adherens junctions. EPHA2 overexpression induces a FAK-dependent increase in MMP-2 expression and invasiveness and this process that can be reversed by ligation of EPHA2.
• Sequence: 561-end.
• Applications: Kinase Assay, Western Blot.
• Storage And Stability: Store product at –70oC. For optimal storage, aliquot target into smaller quantities after centrifugation and store at recommended temperature. For most favorable performance, avoid repeated handling and multiple freeze/thaw cycles.
