SAM domain of EPH-A8 subfamily of tyrosine kinase receptors SAM (sterile alpha motif) domain of EPH-A8 subfamily of receptor tyrosine kinases is a C-terminal potential protein-protein interaction domain. This domain is located in the cytoplasmic region of EPH-A8 receptors and appears to mediate cell-cell initiated signal transduction. EPH-A8 receptors are involved in ligand dependent (ephirin A2, A3, A5) regulation of cell adhesion and migration, and in ligand independent regulation of neurite outgrowth in neuronal cells. They perform signaling in kinase dependent and kinase independent manner. EPH-A8 receptors are known to interact with a number of different proteins including PI 3-kinase and AIDA1-like subfamily SAM repeat domain containing proteins. However other domains (not SAM) of EPH-A8 receptors are involved in these interactions.
