About This Section

Entrez Gene summary for TGFA:
This gene encodes a growth factor that is a ligand for the epidermal growth factor receptor, which activates a
signaling pathway for cell proliferation, differentiation and development. This protein may act as either a
transmembrane-bound ligand or a soluble ligand. This gene has been associated with many types of cancers, and it may
also be involved in some cases of cleft lip/palate. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different
isoforms have been found for this gene. (provided by RefSeq, Sep 2011)

UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot: TGFA_HUMAN, P01135
Function: TGF alpha is a mitogenic polypeptide that is able to bind to the EGF receptor/EGFR and to act synergistically
with TGF beta to promote anchorage-independent cell proliferation in soft agar

UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot: TGFA_HUMAN, P01135 (See protein sequence)
Recommended Name: Protransforming growth factor alpha precursor  
Size: 160 amino acids; 17006 Da
Subunit: Interacts with the PDZ domains of MAGI3, SDCBP and SNTA1. The interaction with SDCBP, is required for the
targeting to the cell surface. In the endoplasmic reticulum, in its immature form (i.e. with a prosegment and lacking
full N-glycosylation), interacts with CNIH. In the Golgi apparatus, may form a complex with CNIH and GORASP2.
Interacts (via cytoplasmic C-terminal domain) with NKD2
Subcellular location: Transforming growth factor alpha: Secreted, extracellular space
Subcellular location: Protransforming growth factor alpha: Cell membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein
