HER2/neu (also known as ErbB-2, ERBB2) is a protein (protein accession # P04626; 1255aa, ~185kD, chromosome 17q21.1) highly expressed in breast cancers. It is a cell membrane surface- bound receptor tyrosine kinase and is normally involved in the signal transduction pathways leading to cell growth and differentiation. The oncogene neu is so-named because it was derived from a neuroglioblastoma cell line in rat. ErbB2 was named for its similarity to ErbB (avian erythroblastosis oncogene B). Herstatin, as the product of alternative HER-2 transcript, retains intron 8. The herstatin mRNA is expressed in normal human fetal kidney and liver, but is at reduced levels relative to p185HER-2 mRNA in carcinoma cells that contain an amplified HER-2 gene. Herstatin appears to be an inhibitor of p185HER-2, because it disrupts dimers, reduces tyrosine phosphorylation of p185, and inhibits the anchorage-independent growth of transformed cells that overexpress HER-2. Applications: Suitable for use in Western Blot and ELISA. Other applications not tested. Recommended Dilutions: Western Blot: 1-2ug/ml (ECL) ELISA: 1:10,000-1:150,000 (10-100ng of control peptide/well). Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher. Storage and Stability: Lyophilized powder may be stored at -20 degrees C. Stable for 12 months at -20 degrees C. Reconstitute with sterile PBS. Aliquot to avoid repeated freezing and thawing. Store at -20 degrees C. Reconstituted product is stable for 12 months at -20 degrees C. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap. Further dilutions can be made in assay buffer.
