... Chimeric receptor analyses of the interactions of the ectodomains of ErbB-1 with epidermal growth factor and of those of ErbB-4 with neuregulin Jae-Hoon Kim1,*, Kazuki Saito1,2 and Shigeyuki ... N- and C-terminal parts of the ligand are cross-linked to domainsI and III, respectively, of the receptor [19,22]. The b sheet of EGF may bind to domain I of ErbB-1, and the other surface of the ... activated the chimeras with the ErbB-4 domain I and the ErbB-1 domain III, but not those with the ErbB-1 domain I and the ErbB-4 domain III. Therefore, the relativecontributions between domains I and...
