GeneID: 397484 Pig TGFA

Swiss-port # Q06922 Pig Protransforming growth factor alpha

Gene Symbol TGFA
Gene Full Name transforming growth factor, alpha
Background 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]
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. [UniProt]
Cellular Localization Transforming growth factor alpha: Secreted, extracellular space. Protransforming growth factor alpha: Cell membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein. [UniProt]
