MeSH definition : A large family of receptor protein-tyrosine kinases that are structurally-related.
The name of this family of proteins derives from original protein Eph (now called
the EPHA1 RECEPTOR), which was named after the cell line it was first discovered in:
Erythropoietin-Producing human Hepatocellular carcinoma cell line. Members of this
family have been implicated in regulation of cell-cell interactions involved in nervous
system patterning and development.;
