EGFR Vectors

We provide fully sequenced EGFR expression vectors (pMSCV-EGFR-GFP, pCMV-EGFR, and pLenti-MSCV-EGFR-GFP) for gene function analysis and assay development. Our tools are designed for reliability, reproducibility, and fast integration into your research workflow.

pCMV-EGFR Vectors

Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) is a transmembrane tyrosine kinase receptor that plays a critical role in regulating cell division and death. Mutations in the EGFR gene that lead to overexpression of the protein have been associated with a number of different cancers. The EGFR gene is present on chromosome 7p11.2 and has 28 coding exons in which exons 5–7 and 13–16 code for the ligand-binding domain and exons 18–24 code for the TK domain.  

 

Downstream effects of EGFR activation include modulation of the RAS-RAF-MAPK, PI3K/AKT, and JAK/STAT pathways which can lead to cell survival, proliferation, and migration of cancer cells.

We offer a collection of unique cloning and expression cDNA vectors containing the wild-type or mutated EGFR gene. These mutations are clinically approved and are being studied by many researchers. Our high-quality vectors are fully sequenced and ready to use. We also offer custom cloning services for your specific construct needs.

pMSCV-EGF-GFP Vectors Research Application

  • Overexpressing EGF in cells to study the effects of EGF on cell proliferation, differentiation, and survival.

  • Generating stable cell lines expressing EGF for long-term studies of EGF signaling pathways and downstream effects.

  • Investigating the mechanisms of resistance to EGF inhibitors or combination therapies in cells that overexpress EGF.

  • Developing animal models of EGF-driven cancers by transfecting cells with pMSCV-EGF-GFP vectors and injecting them into animals.

  • Evaluating the efficacy of various inhibitors or combination therapies targeting EGF in vitro and in vivo.

Benefits

RT Research

Our engineered expression cell lines are perfect for studying RTKs and their pathways, or any other relevant molecular or relevant mechanisms.

Double Selection

Single clones are selected with GFP and hygromycin, which can be used to maintain RTK expression.

Comprehensive Validation

The selected clones have been validated with PCR-sequencing and Western blot analysis.

Functional Analysis

Proliferation tests have been performed on the cell lines with their corresponding inhibitors.

Benefits

Panel of EGFR Mutant Vectors

The panel includes more than 12 ready-to-use EGFR mutants.

Easy Detection

The DYKDDDDK-tag is engineered downstream of the EGFR gene to enable detection by Western blot.

Stable Cell Line Establishment

A hygromycin-resistance gene inserted in the vector can be used for the selection of cells to create a stable cell line.

Custom Service Available

Custom services are available for any mutants that are not listed in our panel of EGFR vectors.

pLenti-MSCV-EGFR-GFP Vectors

Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) is a transmembrane tyrosine kinase receptor that plays a critical role in regulating cell division and death.  Mutations in EGFR gene that lead to overexpression of the protein have been associated with a number of different cancers. The EGFR gene is present on chromosome 7p11.2 and has 28 coding exons in which exons 5–7 and 13–16 code for the ligand-binding domain and exons 18–24 code for the TK domain.  Downstream effects of EGFR activation include modulation of three major pathways of RAS-RAF-MAPK, PI3K/AKT, and JAK/STAT pathways which can lead to cell survival, proliferation, and migration of cancer cells.

We offer a collection of unique cloning and expression cDNA vectors contain WT and mutated EGFR gene. These mutations are clinically approved and are under further investigation by many researchers. Our high-quality vectors are fully sequenced and are ready to use. We also offer custom cloning services for your specific construct needs.
