Ephrin type-B receptor 1 Antibodies

Receptor tyrosine kinase which binds promiscuously transmembrane ephrin-B family ligands living on adjacent cells, resulting in contact-dependent bidirectional signaling into neighboring cells. The signaling pathway downstream of the receptor is known as forward signaling while the signaling pathway downstream of the ephrin ligand is known as reverse signaling.

Cognate/functional ephrin ligands for this receptor include EFNB1, EFNB2 and EFNB3. During nervous system development, regulates retinal axon guidance redirecting ipsilaterally ventrotemporal retinal ganglion cells axons at the optic chiasm midline.
