products description :
Background: This Quantitative Sandwich ELISA kit is only for in vitro research use only, not for drug, household, therapeutic or diagnostic applications! This kit is intended to be used for determination the level of EPG (hereafter termed "analyte") in undiluted original Porcine body fluids, tissue homogenates, secretions or feces samples. This kit is NOT suitable for assaying non-biological sources of substances.

ncbi summary :
The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the epidermal growth factor family. Members of this family are ligands for the epidermal growth factor receptor and play a role in cell survival, proliferation and migration. This protein has been reported to have high mitogenic activity but low affinity for its receptor. Expression of this transcript and protein have been reported in cancer specimens of the breast, bladder, and prostate. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

uniprot summary :
Epigen: Promotes the growth of epithelial cells. May stimulate the phosphorylation of EGFR and mitogen-activated protein kinases. 7 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing. Protein type: Ligand, receptor tyrosine kinase; Membrane protein, integral. Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 4q13.3. Cellular Component: extracellular space; integral to plasma membrane. Molecular Function: growth factor activity; epidermal growth factor receptor binding. Biological Process: positive regulation of MAP kinase activity; positive regulation of epidermal growth factor receptor activity; positive regulation of mitosis; activation of MAPK activity; positive regulation of cell proliferation; MAPKKK cascade; angiogenesis; positive regulation of epithelial cell proliferation
