Background

EPHA2 (Ephrin type-A receptor 2) belongs to the receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) family, with 16 known receptors and 9 known membrane-bound ligands in all species. Based on the extracellular domain sequence homology, structure, and binding affinity, Eph receptors and their ephrin ligands can be divided into A and B subtypes. EPHA2 contains a conserved N-terminal ligand-bound extracellular domain, a transmembrane domain, and a conserved tyrosine kinase domain. EPHA2 interacts with ephrin-A family ligands residing on the neighboring cell and induce diverse signaling networks following cell-to-cell contact. EPHA2 is highly produced in tumor tissues and represents a potential target for treating malignant tumors.
