Abstract excerpt
The EGF family hormone NRG2beta potently stimulates ErbB4 tyrosine phosphorylation and coupling to IL3 independence. In contrast, the NRG2alpha splicing isoform has lower affinity for ErbB4, does not potently stimulate ErbB4 phosphorylation, and fails to stimulate ErbB4 coupling. Here we investigate these differences. The NRG2beta Q43L mutant potently stimulates ErbB4 phosphorylation but not ErbB4 coupling to IL3...
