Ephrin Type-A Receptor 6

Preferred Label : Ephrin Type-A Receptor 6;

NCIt synonyms : EHK-2; EPHA6; EPH Homology Kinase 2; Ephrin Receptor EphA6; EPH Receptor A6; EC 2.7.10.1; EPH-Like Kinase 12; EK12;

NCIt definition : Ephrin type-A receptor 6 (1036 aa, 116 kDa) is encoded by the human EPHA6 gene. This protein is involved in ligand binding-dependent bidirectional cell-cell signaling.;

NCIt note : The signaling pathways downstream of ephrin receptors are referred to as forward signaling while the signaling pathways downstream of the ephrin ligands are referred to as reverse signaling. (UniProt);
