Rabbit anti-Human GRB2 Polyclonal Antibody

Uniprot Id

P62993

Target Species

Human

Target Name

GRB2

Target Full Name

Growth factor receptor-bound protein 2

Target Function

Adapter protein that provides a critical link between cell surface growth factor receptors and the Ras signaling pathway.; Does not bind to phosphorylated epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) but inhibits EGF-induced transactivation of a RAS-responsive element. Acts as a dominant negative protein over GRB2 and by suppressing proliferative signals, may trigger active programmed cell death.

Target Subcellular Location

Nucleus. Cytoplasm. Endosome. Golgi apparatus.

Target Protein Families

GRB2/sem-5/DRK family

Target Background

The protein encoded by this gene binds the epidermal growth factor receptor and contains one SH2 domain and two SH3 domains. Its two SH3 domains direct complex formation with proline-rich regions of other proteins, and its SH2 domain binds tyrosine phosphorylated sequences. This gene is similar to the Sem5 gene of C.elegans, which is involved in the signal transduction pathway. Two alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.
