Figure 4.
Figure 4: A double-headed mechanism for EGFR inhibition by MIG6. a, A co-transfection experiment showing that EGFR(activator) can activate EGFR(activatable), and that MIG6 can inhibit this activation. b, Co-transfection experiments showing that full-length EGFR containing the L834R/V924R double mutation only shows autophosphorylation when co-transfected with EGFR(activator). Co-transfection combinations in a and b are represented by the cartoons in the respective lower panels, for clarity. The I682Q, D813N, L834R and V924R mutations are denoted in the cartoons by a circle, diamond, star and triangle, respectively. c, A schematic diagram showing the double-headed mechanism for EGFR inhibition by MIG6 involving both segment 1 and segment 2.
