Abstract excerpt
Amplification of the type I receptor tyrosine kinase ErbB-2 (HER2/Neu) is observed in 20-30% of human mammary carcinomas, correlating with a poor clinical prognosis. We have previously demonstrated that four (Tyr(1144), Tyr(1201), Tyr(1226/1227), or Tyr(1253)) of the five known Neu/ErbB-2 autophosphorylation sites can independently mediate transforming signals. The transforming potential of at least two of these...
