Abstract excerpt
Members of the ErbB/HER family of epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinases cross a membrane with a single transmembrane (TM) helix. ErbB receptors form diverse homo- and heterodimers, which substantially increases the signaling potential of ErbB receptors. The involvement of the ErbB TM domains in homo- and heterodimerization is largely enigmatic. In this study, we experimentally analyzed the potential...
