EPHA7 is a member of the ephrin receptor subfamily of protein-tyrosine kinases family that have been implicated in mediating developmental events, particularly in the nervous system. Receptors in the EPH subfamily typically have a single kinase domain and an extracellular region containing a Cys-rich domain and 2-fibronectin types III repeats. EPHA7 mediated signaling act as a physiologic trigger for apoptosis that can alter brain size and shape by regulating the number of neural progenitors . The high expression of EPHA7 protein plays an important role in the malignancy transformation, invasion progression and metastasis of primary hepatocellular carcinoma .

EPHB1 is a member of the Eph family of receptor tyrosine kinases. Ligand-activated EPHB1 forms a signaling complex with Nck, paxillin, and focal adhesion kinase and induces tyrosine phosphorylation of paxillin in a c-Src-dependent manner to promote cell migration . In addition, activated EPHB1 recruits the adaptor proteins Grb2 and p52Shc and promotes p52Shc and c-Src tyrosine phosphorylation as well as MAPK/extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) activation. Expression of dominant-negative c-Src significantly reduced EPHB1-dependent ERK1/2 activation and chemotaxis .

FER is a member of the FPS/FES family of nontransmembrane receptor tyrosine kinases. FER plays a role in regulating cytoskeletal rearrangements and inside out signalling that accompany receptor ligand, cell matrix and cell cell interactions . Genetic analysis using transgenic mouse models implicate FER in the regulation of inflammation and innate immunity. Fer-deficient mice displayed enhanced recruitment of leukocytes in response to local LPS challenge. FER is required for cell-cycle progression in malignant cells. Decreasing the level of FER using RNAi impeded the proliferation of prostate and breast carcinoma cells and led to their arrest at the G0/G1 phase .
