Parent Terms Term With Siblings Child Terms
angiotensin maturation  
endothelin maturation  
enkephalin processing  
epidermal growth factor receptor ligand maturation  
Any process leading to the attainment of the full functional capacity of a ligand for an epidermal growth factor receptor. The ligand is functional when it can bind to and activate an epidermal growth factor receptor.
