Designing a Western blot for EPS15? The guide has the expected band size, antibodies backed by real blot images, the controls to run alongside, and protocols taken from published papers.
Open the EPS15 Western Blot GuideFacts about Epidermal growth factor receptor substrate 15.
Involved in the internalization of ligand-inducible receptors of the receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) type, in particular EGFR. Plays a role in the assembly of clathrin-coated pits (CCPs).

Ubiquitously expressed.
Cytoplasm. Cell membrane; Peripheral membrane protein; Cytoplasmic side. Membrane, clathrin-coated pit. Recruited to the plasma membrane upon EGFR activation and localizes to coated pits. Colocalizes with UBQLN1 in ubiquitin-rich cytoplasmic aggregates that are not endocytic compartments and in cytoplasmic juxtanuclear structures called aggresomes.; [Isoform 2]: Early endosome membrane; Peripheral membrane protein; Cytoplasmic side. Colocalizes with HGS on bilayered clathrin coats on endosomes.





PMID: 8183552 by Wong W.T., et al. The human eps15 gene, encoding a tyrosine kinase substrate, is conserved in evolution and maps to 1p31-p32.
PMID: 8134107 by Bernard O.A., et al. A novel gene, AF-1p, fused to HRX in t(1;11)(p32;q23), is not related to AF-4, AF-9 nor ENL.
