General annotation (Comments)

Function

Growth factor that mediates its effects via EGFR, ERBB2 and ERBB4. Required for normal cardiac valve formation and normal heart function. Promotes smooth muscle cell proliferation. May be involved in macrophage-mediated cellular proliferation. It is mitogenic for fibroblasts, but not endothelial cells. It is able to bind EGF receptor/EGFR with higher affinity than EGF itself and is a far more potent mitogen for smooth muscle cells than EGF. Also acts as a diphtheria toxin receptor.

Subunit structure

Interacts with FBLN1 By similarity. Interacts with EGFR and ERBB4. Ref.9

Subcellular location

Heparin-binding EGF-like growth factor: Secretedextracellular space. Note: Mature HB-EGF is released into the extracellular space and probably binds to a receptor.

Proheparin-binding EGF-like growth factor: Cell membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein.

Post-translational modification

Several N-termini have been identified by direct sequencing. The forms with N-termini 63, 73 and 74 have been tested and found to be biologically active.

O-linked glycan attachment sites were determined by Edman degradation, O-glycanase digest suggests mucin-type glycosylation (done in HB-EGF purified from histiocytic lymphoma cell line U-937).

Sequence similarities

Contains 1 EGF-like domain.
