Abstract excerpt
The ligand-binding domain of the epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor is separated from the cytoplasmic protein tyrosine kinase domain by a predicted single transmembrane segment. Antipeptide antibodies prepared against the outer portion of the predicted transmembrane segment confirmed this area was exposed only when cells were treated with permeabilizing agents. To investigate structural requirements for...
