HER2 antibody detects HER2, also known as ErbB2, a receptor tyrosine kinase encoded by the ERBB2 gene. HER2 is a member of the epidermal growth factor receptor family, where it functions as a dimerization partner for other ErbB receptors. Overexpression or amplification of HER2 drives oncogenic signaling in breast, gastric, and other cancers. Because HER2 is both a diagnostic marker and therapeutic target, HER2 antibody is a central reagent in oncology and translational research.
HER2 consists of an extracellular ligand-binding region, a single transmembrane domain, and a cytoplasmic tyrosine kinase domain. Although HER2 lacks a known ligand, it heterodimerizes with other ErbB receptors to amplify downstream signaling. Activation of HER2 triggers MAPK, PI3K/AKT, and JAK/STAT pathways, supporting proliferation, survival, and angiogenesis. Its amplification is a hallmark of aggressive breast cancer, defining patients who benefit from HER2-targeted therapies.
The HER2 antibody clone ERBB2/4439R provides reproducible and specific recognition. Recombinant production ensures consistent performance across lots. Clone ERBB2/4439R has been cited in peer-reviewed publications evaluating HER2 expression in breast and gastric cancers, supporting both diagnostic and mechanistic studies. Its versatility makes it suitable for immunohistochemistry, Western blotting, and flow cytometry.
Research using clone ERBB2/4439R has demonstrated how HER2 expression correlates with poor prognosis and therapeutic response in oncology. In translational research, HER2 detection provides the foundation for targeted therapies including monoclonal antibodies and tyrosine kinase inhibitors. This antibody has also been used in mechanistic studies to clarify how HER2 cooperates with other signaling receptors in tumor biology.
NSJ Bioreagents supplies this HER2 antibody to support oncology, signal transduction research, and therapeutic development. Alternate names include ERBB2 antibody, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 antibody, neu oncogene protein antibody, HER2/neu receptor antibody, and receptor tyrosine kinase ErbB2 antibody.
Optimal dilution of the HER2 antibody should be determined by the researcher.
A recombinant protein encoding the extracellular domain of human c-erbB2 was used as the immunogen for the HER2 antibody.
Store the HER2 antibody at 2-8oC (with azide) or aliquot and store at -20oC or colder (without azide).
