Species enclosed in parentheses are predicted to react based on 100% sequence homology. Species cross-reactivity is determined by Western blot.
Specificity / Sensitivity
Phospho-EGF Receptor (Tyr1173) (53A5) Rabbit mAb detects endogenous EGF receptors only when phosphorylated at Tyr1173. This antibody may weakly cross-react with insulin receptor.
Source / Purification
Monoclonal antibodies are produced by immunizing rabbits with a synthetic phospho-peptide (KLH-coupled) corresponding to residues surrounding Tyr1173 of human EGF receptor.
Western Blotting
Phospho-EGF Receptor (Tyr1173) (53A5) Rabbit mAb specifically binds to tyrosine phosphorylated EGF receptors but not other phosphorylated tyrosine kinases. Western blot analysis of extracts from cells expressing different activated tyrosine kinase proteins, using Phospho-EGF Receptor (Tyr1173)(53A5) Rabbit mAb (upper) or Phospho-Tyrosine mAb (P-Tyr-100) #9411 (lower).
Western Blotting
Western blot analysis of extracts from BxPc-3 cells treated with EGF (100 ng/ml for 5 min) or EGF plus the EGF receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor Iressa® (10 uM for 2 hrs), using Phospho-EGF Receptor (Tyr1173) (53A5) Rabbit mAb (upper) or EGF Receptor Antibody #2232 (lower).

IHC-P (paraffin)
Immunohistochemical analysis of paraffin-embedded human prostate carcinoma, using Phospho-EGF Receptor (Tyr1173)(53A5) Rabbit mAb (left) or the same antibody preincubated with Phospho-EGF Receptor (Tyr1173) Blocking Peptide (#1175) (right).
Background
The epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor is a 170 kDa transmembrane tyrosine kinase that belongs to the HER/ErbB protein family. Ligand binding results in receptor dimerization, autophosphorylation, activation of downstream signaling and lysosomal degradation (1,2). Phosphorylation of EGF receptor (EGFR) at Tyr845 in the kinase domain is implicated in stabilizing the activation loop, maintaining the active state enzyme and providing a binding surface for substrate proteins (3,4). c-Src is involved in phosphorylation of EGFR at Tyr845 (5). The SH2 domain of PLCγ binds at phospho-Tyr992, resulting in activation of PLCγ-mediated downstream signaling (6). Phosphorylation of EGFR at Tyr1045 creates a major docking site for c-Cbl, an adaptor protein that leads to receptor ubiquitination and degradation following EGFR activation (7,8). The GRB2 adaptor protein binds activated EGFR at phospho-Tyr1068 (9). A pair of phosphorylated residues (Tyr1148 and Tyr1173) provides a docking site for the SHC scaffold protein, with both sites involved in MAP kinase signaling activation (2). Phosphorylation of EGFR at specific serine and threonine residues attenuates EGFR kinase activity. EGFR carboxy-terminal residues Ser1046 and Ser1047 are phosphorylated by CaM kinase II; mutations to either of these serines results in upregulated EGFR tyrosine autokinase activity (10).
