Scientific Data
Detection of Human EphA1 by Western Blot. Western blot shows lysates of T47D human breast cancer cell line. PVDF membrane was probed with 1 µg/mL of Goat Anti-Human EphA1 Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF638) followed by HRP-conjugated Anti-Goat IgG Secondary Antibody (Catalog # HAF017). A specific band was detected for EphA1 at approximately 130 kDa (as indicated). This experiment was conducted under reducing conditions and using Immunoblot Buffer Group 1.
EphA1 in MCF‑7 Human Cell Line. EphA1 was detected in immersion fixed MCF-7 human breast cancer cell line using Goat Anti-Human EphA1 Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF638) at 10 µg/mL for 3 hours at room temperature. Cells were stained using the NorthernLights™ 557-conjugated Anti-Goat IgG Secondary Antibody (red; Catalog # NL001) and counterstained with DAPI (blue). Specific staining was localized to cytoplasm.

Background: EphA1
EphA1, also known as Eph and Esk (1), is a member of the Eph receptor family which binds members of the ephrin ligand family. There are two classes of receptors, designated A and B. Both the A and B class receptors have an extracellular region consisting of a globular domain, a cysteine-rich domain, and two fibronectin type III domains. This is followed by the transmembrane region and cytoplasmic region. The cytoplasmic region contains a juxtamembrane motif with two tyrosine residues, which are the major autophosphorylation sites, a kinase domain, and a conserved sterile alpha motif (SAM) in the carboxy tail which contains one conserved tyrosine residue. Activation of kinase activity occurs after ligand recognition and binding. EphA1 has been shown to bind ephrin-A1 (2, 3). The extracellular domains of mouse and human EphA1 share greater than 91% amino acid identity. Only membrane-bound or Fc-clustered ligands are capable of activating the receptor in vitro. While soluble monomeric ligands bind the receptor, they do not induce receptor autophosphorylation and activation (2). In vivo, the ligands and receptors display reciprocal expression (3). It has been found that nearly all receptors and ligands are expressed in developing and adult neural tissue (3). The Eph/ephrin families also appear to play a role in angiogenesis (3).
