Description: HER2 / ErbB2 is one of the four members of the ErbB receptor family of transmembrane receptor-like tyrosine kinases (1). The kinase activity of ErbB2 can be activated without ligand if it is overexpressed, and by association with other ErbB proteins (2). Overexpression of ErbB2 is detected in almost 40% of human breast cancers (3). Binding of c-Cbl ubiquitin ligase to Tyr1112 of ErbB2 leads to poly-ubiquitination of ErbB2 and enhances its degradation (4). ErbB2 is one of the major targets for the treatment of breast cancer and other carcinomas.

Specificity: A synthetic peptide corresponding to residues near the C-terminus of human Her2 was used as an immunogen. This antibody detects Her2 phosphorylated at Tyr1248 as well as unphosphorlyated Her2.
