Description(s):

The pMSCV-EGFR (D770_N771insSVD, C797S) vector contains EGFR with the D770_N771insSVD, C797S mutations under the MSCV promoter for high expression in hematopoietic, HEK293, and stem cells. Downstream of the mutant EGFR gene is a DYKDDDDK-tag for Western blotting. Furthermore, the coGFP under the EF1 promoter can be used as a selection marker with stable cell lines. The base vector is a modified pMSCV vector with the LTRs and the lentiviral packaging signal (Ψ) removed for standard expression. For retroviral expression systems, please see our ELM series or contact customer support.

Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) is a transmembrane tyrosine kinase receptor that plays a critical role in regulating cell division and death.  The EGFR D770_N771insSVD, C797S mutations involve the insertion of amino acids SVD (Ser, Val, Asp) between the position D770 and N771, and a point mutation that changes a C (Cys) into an S (Ser) at point 797. The C797S mutation in particular is known to confer resistance to EGFR inhibitors such as osimertinib and poziotinib.
