Validated All-in-One™ qPCR Primer for EPS8(NM_004447.5) Search again
By default, qPCR primer pairs are designed to measure the expression level of the splice variant (accession number) you selected for this gene WITHOUT consideration of other possible variants of this gene. If this gene has multiple variants, and you would like to measure the expression levels of one particular variant, multiple variants, or all variants, please contact us for a custom service project at inquiry@genecopoeia.com.

Summary
This gene encodes a member of the EPS8 family. This protein contains one PH domain and one SH3 domain. It functions as part of the EGFR pathway, though its exact role has not been determined. Highly similar proteins in other organisms are involved in the transduction of signals from Ras to Rac and growth factor-mediated actin remodeling. Alternate transcriptional splice variants of this gene have been observed but have not been thoroughly characterized. [provided by RefSeq].
Gene References into function
- Involved in the growth factor-controlled regulation of cell proliferation and differentiation in the seminiferous epithelium.
- These results support a model whereby the synergic bundling activity of the IRSp53-Eps8 complex, regulated by Cdc42, contributes to the generation of actin bundles, thus promoting filopodial protrusions.
- Eps8 is essential for actin dynamics and cell interactions, independent of Eps8-like gene products.
- These findings implicate the involvement of Eps8 in chemoresistance and show its importance in prognosis of cervical cancer patients.
- overexpression of EPS8 in HN4 cells was sufficient to induce growth of non-tumorigenic cells in orthotopic transplantation assays. EPS8 expression in samples of squamous cell carcinoma showed variable expression levels and paralleled expression of MMP-9
