Synonyms | EPG, Epithelial mitogen |
Description | Epigen is an EGF-related polypeptide growth factor that signals through the ErbB receptor-1. It is produced in several tissues, including the testis, liver, heart and in certain tumor cells. Epigen is mitogenic for fibroblasts and epithelial cells. Human Epigen is initially synthesized as a glycosylated precursor protein, which is processed by proteolytic cleavage to produce a mature soluble sequence. |
