Growth Factor Receptor-Bound Protein-10 Definition

Grb10 belongs to a small family of adapter proteins that are known to interact with a number of receptor tyrosine kinases and signaling molecules. It interacts with IGF1R, PDGFRB, and EGFR and binds to the Raf-1 and MEK1 kinases. Its cellular role is still unclear and a positive as well as an inhibitory role in mitogenesis depending on the cell context has been implicated. Grb10 may regulate signaling between plasma membrane receptors and the apoptosis-inducing machinery on the mitochondrial outer membrane.
