A portion of amino acids 21-52 from the human protein was used as the immunogen for this ErbB2 antibody.
ErbB2, a member of the EGF receptor family, is an essential component of a neuregulin-receptor complex, although neuregulins do not interact with it alone. GP30 is a potential ligand for this receptor. This protein is not activated by EGF, TGF-alpha and amphiregulin. ErbB2 potentially forms a heterodimer with each of the other ERBB receptors. An Interaction with PRKCABP has been suggested. Ligand-binding to this Type I membrane protein may increase phosphorylation on tyrosine residues
