  • Neuregulin
  • NRG Proteins

Scope note

  • A family of peptides originally found as factors that stimulate the phosphorylation of the erbB-2 receptor (RECEPTORS, ERBB-2). Multiple variant forms of NEUREGULINS occur due to alternative splicing of their mRNAs. The NEUREGULINS include products from the three known genes (NGR1; NGR2 and NGR3).

History note

  • 2000; use NEUREGULINS (NM) 1986-1999
