Immunogen
Human EGFR.
Application Notes
The antibody binds specifically to EGFR, a cell-surface receptor which is part of the ErbB family of receptors. The EGFR is a receptor tyrosine kinase, which, upon activation by its ligands, such as epidermal growth factor and transforming growth factor alpha, triggers signal transduction pathways that increase cell migration, adhesion and proliferation. Mutations that lead to the overexpression of EGFR are associated with the development of cancer. The antibody was prepared from phage antibodies isolated from the spleen library.

Note on publication
Describes the phage-antibody technology, which is used to produce three phage- antibody libraries from which mouse anti-EGFR scFv antibodies are generated. The libraries are prepared from the spleen, lymph node and in vitro cells of an immunized mouse. The antibodies produced are compared with a mouse mAb, 425, isolated by standard hybridoma technology.
