The epidermal growth factor receptor is the cell-surface receptor for members of the epidermal growth factor family (EGF-family) of extracellular protein ligands. The epidermal growth factor receptor is a member of the ErbB family of receptors, a subfamily of four closely related receptor tyrosine kinases: EGFR (ErbB-1), HER2/c-neu (ErbB-2), Her 3 (ErbB-3) and Her 4 (ErbB-4). Mutations affecting EGFR expression or activity could result in cancer. EGFR exists on the cell surface and is activated by binding of its specific ligands, including epidermal growth factor and transforming growth factor a (TGFa). ErbB2 has no known direct activating ligand, and may be in an activated state constitutively or become active upon heterodimerization with other family members such as EGFR.

Mouse Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) ELISA Kit employs a two-site sandwich ELISA to quantitate EGFR in samples. An antibody specific for EGFR has been pre-coated onto a microplate. Standards and samples are pipetted into the wells and anyEGFR present is bound by the immobilized antibody. After removing any unbound substances, a biotin-conjugated antibody specific for EGFR is added to the wells. After washing, Streptavidin conjugated Horseradish Peroxidase (HRP) is added to the wells. Following a wash to remove any unbound avidin-enzyme reagent, a substrate solution is added to the wells and color develops in proportion to the amount of EGFR bound in the initial step. The color development is stopped and the intensity of the color is measured.
