Gene Description EGR1, early growth response 1, encodes a transcriptional regulator that is induced by various signals either extracellularly or from the environment, thereby playing a role in many biological processes, including cell proliferation, differentiation, and angiogenesis (PMID: 18397757, PMID: 20009530, PMID: 17312150).
