Description | Specificity: 3B5 reacts equally well with the wild type as well as the mutant (oncogenic) form of the c-erbB-2/HER-2/neu protein, but preferentially recognizes the unphosphorylated form of this protein. C-erbB-2 (erythroblastosis oncogene B), also known as HER2 (Human Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor 2), or Neu, CD340 and p185 is a protein that in Humans is encoded by the ERBB2 gene. AmplifiCation or overexpression of this gene has been shown to play an important role in the pathogenesis and progression of certain aggressive types of breast cancer, as well as many other epithelial malignancies and brain tumors. In recent years it has become an important biomarker and target of therapy for disease. ERBB2 is a known proto-oncogene loCated at |
Immunogen | Source Note: 3B5 is a Mouse monoclonal IgG1 antibody derived by fusion of SP2/0 Mouse myeloma cells with spleen cells from a BALB/c Mouse immunized with a synthetic peptide TAENPEYLGLDVPV corresponding to amino acid residues 1242-1255 of the C-terminus of the Human c-erbB-2/HER-2/neu protein. This sequence is identical in Rat neu protein. |
