Background:  The Eph family of receptors comprises the largest known family of receptor tyrosine kinases. Ligands of Eph family receptors are structurally related membrane-bound proteins that can be subdivided into two major subclasses, ephrin-A and ephrin-B. Expression of Eph receptors is tissue specific and appears to be tied to developmental events. Ligands in the ephrin-A subclass, including the prototype family member ephrin-A1 (B61), are membrane associated through glycosylphosphatidyl-inositol linkages, whereas ephrin-B subclass consists of ligands with transmembrane domains. The general role of the Eph family is in mediating repulsive cell-cell interaction.
