Based on their structures and sequence relationships, ephrins are divided into the ephrin-A (EFNA) class, which are anchored to the membrane by a glycosylphosphatidylinositol linkage, and the ephrin-B (EFNB) class, which are transmembrane proteins. The Eph family of receptors are divided into 2 groups based on the similarity of their extracellular domain sequences and their affinities for binding ephrin-A and ephrin-B ligands. Ephrin receptors make up the largest subgroup of the receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) family. The protein encoded by this gene binds to ephrin-B2 and plays an essential role in vascular development. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]. * **UniProt Summary**: Receptor tyrosine kinase which binds promiscuously transmembrane ephrin-B family ligands residing on adjacent cells, leading to contact-dependent bidirectional signaling into neighboring cells. The signaling pathway downstream of the receptor is referred to as forward signaling while the signaling pathway downstream of the ephrin ligand is referred to as reverse signaling. Together with its cognate ligand/functional ligand EFNB2 plays a central role in heart morphogenesis and angiogenesis through regulation of cell adhesion and cell migration. EPHB4- mediated forward signaling controls cellular repulsion and segregation form EFNB2-expressing cells. Plays also a role in postnatal blood vessel remodeling, morphogenesis and permeability and is thus important in the context of tumor angiogenesis. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12734395, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16424904, ECO:0000269|PubMed:27400125}. |Pkinase Tyr| |SAM 2| |Ephrin lbd| |Pkinase| |fn3| |GCC2 GCC3| |SAM 1| |ephrin receptor activity| |transmembrane-ephrin receptor activity| |cell migration involved in sprouting angiogenesis| |blood vessel endothelial cell migration| |transmembrane receptor protein tyrosine kinase activity| |sprouting angiogenesis| |endothelial cell migration| |epithelial cell migration| |ephrin receptor signaling pathway| |epithelium migration| |tissue migration| |peptidyl-tyrosine phosphorylation| |peptidyl-tyrosine modification| |ameboidal-type cell migration| |protein autophosphorylation| |receptor complex| |heart morphogenesis| |axon guidance| |neuron projection guidance| |angiogenesis| |neuron projection| |axonogenesis| |blood vessel morphogenesis| |axon development| |cell morphogenesis involved in neuron differentiation| |neuron projection morphogenesis| |plasma membrane bounded cell projection morphogenesis| |blood vessel development| |cell projection morphogenesis| |vasculature development| |transmembrane receptor protein tyrosine kinase signaling pathway| |cell part morphogenesis| |cardiovascular system development| |heart development| |chemotaxis| |taxis| |cell morphogenesis involved in differentiation| |tube morphogenesis| |neuron projection development| |enzyme linked receptor protein signaling pathway| |cell morphogenesis| |neuron development| |cellular component morphogenesis| |tube development| |circulatory system development| |peptidyl-amino acid modification| |anatomical structure formation involved in morphogenesis| |cell adhesion| |biological adhesion| |animal organ morphogenesis| |cell migration| |protein phosphorylation| |neuron differentiation| |localization of cell| |cell motility| |plasma membrane bounded cell projection organization| |cell projection organization| |phosphorylation| |locomotion| |integral component of plasma membrane| |ATP binding| |generation of neurons| |movement of cell or subcellular component| |neurogenesis| |cell development| |extracellular region| \\ === CRISPR Data === ^Screen^Score^ |[[:results:exp101|Nicotinamide 1000μM R03 exp101]]|-1.93| |[[:results:exp312|2-Methoxyestradiol 0.55 to 1μM on day4 R07 exp312]]|-1.74| |[[:results:exp273|Cisplatin 0.35μM R06 exp273]]|1.72| |[[:results:exp36|TRAIL 50ng/ml R00 exp36]]|1.72| |[[:results:exp51|Nifuroxazide 1μM R01 exp51]]|1.85| No correlation found to any other genes in chemogenomics.
