IQGAP1 is a large, multi-domain scaffold that connects and modulates different signaling networks including the one initiated by epidermal growth factor (EGF). In this study, we have used live cell fluorescence imaging methods along with other biochemical techniques to follow the mechanisms used by IQGAP1 to enhance EGF signaling. We show that IQGAP1 enhances EGF signaling by promoting the oligomerization of its receptor, EGFR, upon EGF addition along with concurrent IQGAP oligomerization.
