Description: An oncogene. In this section of human breast tissue, phosphorylated EGF receptor is stained brown. Normal cells are the ones with lighter staining. The heavily stained cells have formed a neoplasm; the abnormal overabundance of the phosphorylated EGF receptor means that mitosis is being continually stimulated in these cells. The EGF receptor is overproduced or overactive in most neoplasms.
