Biolegend, 639957, Alexa Fluor® 488 anti-CD340 (ErbB2/HER-2) Antibody, 25μg

CD340, also commonly known as HER-2 or ErbB2, is a member of the epidermal growth factor receptor family of cell membrane tyrosine kinases containing a single transmembrane domain. CD340 contains three furin repeats and two CheY homologous receiver domains in the extracellular region. Although CD340 itself contains no ligand- binding domain, it interacts with other EGF receptor family members to form a heterodimer, stabilize ligand binding, and enhance kinase-mediated downstream signaling. CD340 has been shown to be involved in embryonic development and cancer progression; this protein is amplified in lung adenocarcinoma, some breast cancers, glioblastoma, gastric cancer, and ovarian carcinoma, where it functions as an oncogene. CD340 is a therapeutic target in several human cancers and it has been shown that overexpression in breast cancers confers Taxol resistance.
