Enables epidermal growth factor receptor binding activity. Involved in several processes, including hepatocyte proliferation; negative regulation of apoptotic process; and positive regulation of cell population proliferation. Located in extracellular space. Used to study pancreatic cancer. Biomarker of acute kidney failure and hepatocellular carcinoma. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in gastroenteritis. Orthologous to human TGFA (transforming growth factor alpha).

Enables epidermal growth factor receptor binding activity. Involved in several processes, including hepatocyte proliferation; negative regulation of apoptotic process; and positive regulation of cell population proliferation. Located in extracellular space. Used to study pancreatic cancer. Biomarker of acute kidney failure and hepatocellular carcinoma. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in gastroenteritis. Orthologous to human TGFA (transforming growth factor alpha); PARTICIPATES IN altered epidermal growth factor/neuregulin signaling pathway; epidermal growth factor/neuregulin signaling pathway; pancreatic cancer pathway; INTERACTS WITH (R)-lipoic acid; (R,R,R)-alpha-tocopherol; 1,3-dinitrobenzene.
