Receptor tyrosine kinase binding ligands of the EGF family and activating several signaling cascades to convert extracellular cues into appropriate cellular responses.
Known ligands include EGF, TGFA/TGF-alpha, amphiregulin, epigen/EPGN, BTC/betacellulin, epiregulin/EREG and HBEGF/heparin-binding EGF.
Ligand binding triggers receptor homo- and/or heterodimerization and autophosphorylation on key cytoplasmic residues.
The phosphorylated receptor recruits adapter proteins like GRB2 which in turn activates complex downstream signaling cascades.
Activates at least 4 major downstream signaling cascades including the RAS-RAF-MEK-ERK, PI3 kinase-AKT, PLCgamma-PKC and STATs modules.
May also activate the NF-kappa-B signaling cascade.
Also directly phosphorylates other proteins like RGS16, activating its GTPase activity and probably coupling the EGF receptor signaling to the G protein-coupled receptor signaling.
Also phosphorylates MUC1 and increases its interaction with SRC and CTNNB1/beta-catenin.
Plays a role in enhancing learning and memory performance (By similarity).
