An amino acid sequence from the N-terminus of human ErbB4/HER4 (KLSSLSDLEQQYRALRK) was used as the immunogen for this ERBB4 antibody (100% homologous in human, mouse and rat).
The stated application concentrations are suggested starting amounts. Titration of the ERBB4 antibody may be required due to differences in protocols and secondary/substrate sensitivity.\. Western blot: 0.5-1 μg/mL
Restrictions
For Research Use only
Buffer
0.5 mg/mL if reconstituted with 0.2 mL sterile DI water
Storage
-20 °C
Storage Comment
After reconstitution, the ERBB4 antibody can be stored for up to one month at 4°C. For long-term, aliquot and store at -20°C. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing.
V-erb-b2 avian erythroblastic leukemia viral oncogene homolog 4, also known as HER4, is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the ERBB4 gene. The HER4/ERBB4 gene is a member of the type I receptor tyrosine kinase subfamily that includes EGFR, ERBB2 and ERBB3. ERBB4 is a single-pass type I transmembrane protein with multiplefurin-like cysteine rich domains, a tyrosine kinase domain, a phosphotidylinositol-3 kinase binding site and aPDZ domainbinding motif.Huang et al.(2000) reported that the proteinis enriched in the postsynaptic density and associates with PSD95. Itis a transmembrane receptor tyrosine kinase that regulates cell proliferation and differentiation. After binding its ligand, heregulin, or activation of protein kinase C by TPA, the ERBB4 ectodomain is cleaved by a metalloprotease. Ni et al.(2001)concluded that gamma-secretase cleavage ofthe proteinmay represent another mechanism for receptor tyrosine kinase-mediated signaling.
