ErbB2 receptor tyrosine kinase 2 (ERBB2), also known as HER2, is a transmembrane receptor that regulates key signaling pathways controlling cell growth, survival, and differentiation. Phospho-ErbB2 (pY1139) antibody, also referred to as phospho-HER2 antibody and phospho-ERBB2 antibody in the literature, detects phosphorylation at tyrosine 1139, a site associated with integration of signaling inputs within the HER2 pathway.
Phosphorylation at Y1139 occurs within the intracellular domain of HER2 and contributes to coordination of downstream signaling pathways following receptor activation. Unlike sites that primarily initiate or propagate signaling, phosphorylation at Y1139 is associated with integration of signaling events, where multiple pathway inputs are balanced and coordinated to determine cellular outcomes. This includes modulation of pathways such as PI3K/AKT and MAPK, which together regulate proliferation, survival, and differentiation.
HER2 signaling plays a critical role in tumor biology, particularly in cancers characterized by ERBB2 amplification such as breast carcinoma. In these settings, phosphorylation at Y1139 contributes to the coordination of signaling pathways that drive tumor progression and cellular adaptation. Detection of this phosphorylation event provides insight into how activated HER2 integrates multiple signaling inputs to produce a unified cellular response.
Y1139 is positioned within a phosphorylation network that includes nearby residues such as Y1112, Y1221, Y1222, and Y1248. While Y1112 contributes to adaptor recruitment and Y1221/Y1222 regulate signal propagation, Y1139 functions at the level of pathway coordination. This highlights its role in integrating signals across multiple downstream pathways rather than driving a single signaling event.
Because phosphorylation at Y1139 reflects coordinated signaling activity, it is particularly useful for studying how HER2 integrates diverse inputs under varying cellular conditions. This includes investigation of pathway crosstalk, signaling balance, and response to external stimuli or therapeutic intervention.
Phospho-specific detection of ERBB2 at Y1139 enables selective analysis of receptor activity at the level of signal integration. This complements detection of initiation, propagation, and activation sites, providing a comprehensive view of HER2 signaling behavior.
For detection of activated HER2 phosphorylation, see our HER2 phospho antibody (pY1248).
Titration of the Phospho-ErbB2 (pY1139) Antibody / Signal Integration Marker may be required due to differences in protocols and secondary/substrate sensitivity.
This phospho-ERBB2 antibody was produced from rabbits immunized with a KLH conjugated synthetic phosphopeptide corresponding to amino acid residues surrounding pY1139 of human HER2/ERBB2.
Aliquot the phospho-ERBB2 antibody and store frozen at -20oC or colder. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
