The early events in signal transduction from the epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor (EGFR) are dimerization and autophosphorylation of the receptor, induced by binding of EGF. Here we observe these events in living cells by visualizing single molecules of fluorescent-dye-labelled EGF in the plas
The PC12 cell line displays cell surface receptors for both nerve growth factor (NGF) and epidermal growth factor (EGF). It has been previously shown that the lectin wheat germ agglutinin (WGA) alters the properties of NGF receptors on these cells. We now report that preincubations with either WGA o
