General description
EPHA2 (ephrin receptor A2) belongs to the Eph family of receptor tyrosine kinases. It is a type I transmembrane protein, and its exoplasmic domain consists of a ligand binding domain in its N-terminal, a cysteine-rich domain, and two fibronectin type III repeats. Its cytoplasmic domain contains a juxtamembrane region, a tyrosine kinase domain, a SAM (sterile-α-motif) motif, and a PDZ-binding domain.
Biochem/physiol Actions
EPHA2 binds to the ephrin-A ligand and has 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 can be reversed by ligation of EPHA2.
Physical form
Supplied in 50 mM Tris-HCl, pH 7.5, with 150 mM NaCl, 0.25 mM DTT, 0.1 mM EGTA, 0.1 mM EDTA, 0.1 mM PMSF, and 25% glycerol.

EPHA2 receptor tyrosine kinase is overexpressed in several human cancer types and promotes malignancy. However, the mechanisms by which EPHA2 promotes tumor progression are not completely understood. Here we report that overexpression of a wild-type EPHA2, but not a signaling-defective
