Membrane Interaction of Bound Ligands Contributes to the Negative Binding Cooperativity of the EGF Receptor

The epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) plays a key role in regulating cell proliferation, migration, and differentiation, and aberrant EGFR signaling is implicated in a variety of cancers. EGFR signaling is triggered by extracellular ligand binding, which promotes EGFR dimerization and activati...
