Anti-Mouse Ephrin-B1 (E242-GRP)

Ephrin-B1 (EFNB1) is a glycoprotein that is expressed on neuroepithelial cells1 and post-synaptically on dendritic spines in the cortex, supporting a role in synaptic plasticity in this region.2 Ephrin-B1 is also highly expressed on developing peripheral nerve fibers including auditory and vestibular (statoacoustic) and dorsal root ganglion nerve fibers and provides guidance signals to these cells.3 Ephrin-B1 participates in cell-cell repulsive and attractive signaling together with its Eph receptor.4 Tyrosine phosphorylation of ephrin-B1 promotes invasion of cancer cells in vivo and is a potential therapeutic target in some types of gastrointestinal cancers.5
