ERBB is abbreviated from erythroblastic oncogene B, a gene originally isolated from the avian genome. The human protein is also frequently referred to as HER2 (human epidermal growth factor receptor 2) or CD340 (cluster of differentiation 340). [5] [6] [7] HER2 is a member of the human epidermal growth factor receptor (HER/EGFR/ERBB) family ...
The epidermal growth factor receptor is a member of the ErbB family of receptors, a subfamily of four closely related receptor tyrosine kinases: EGFR (ErbB-1), HER2/neu (ErbB-2), Her 3 (ErbB-3) and Her 4 (ErbB-4). In many cancer types, mutations affecting EGFR expression or activity could result in cancer. [6]
The ErbB family of proteins contains four receptor tyrosine kinases, structurally related to the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), its first discovered member. In humans, the family includes Her1 (EGFR, ErbB1), Her2 , Her3 , and Her4 . The gene symbol, ErbB, is derived from the name of a viral oncogene to which these receptors are ...
Epidermal growth factor (EGF) is a protein that stimulates cell growth and differentiation by binding to its receptor, EGFR. Human EGF is 6-kDa [5] and has 53 amino acid residues and three intramolecular disulfide bonds. [6] EGF was originally described as a secreted peptide found in the submaxillary glands of mice and in human urine.
The human ERBB3 gene is located on the long arm of chromosome 12 (12q13). It is encoded by 23,651 base pairs and translates into 1342 amino acids. [5]During human development, ERBB3 is expressed in skin, bone, muscle, nervous system, heart, lungs, and intestinal epithelium. [6]
Manhattan-based dermatologist Dr. Brendan Camp, M.D., said that toasted skin syndrome, officially known as erythema ab igne (EAI), is a "pattern of discoloration that occurs in areas of skin after ...
Neuregulins are a family of four structurally related proteins that are part of the EGF family of proteins. These proteins have been shown to have diverse functions in the development of the nervous system and play multiple essential roles in vertebrate embryogenesis including: cardiac development, Schwann cell and oligodendrocyte differentiation, some aspects of neuronal development, as well ...
HGTV home renovation stars Jonathan and Drew Scott – best known as the Property Brothers – are fearful that Trump’s proposed tariffs could send construction costs soaring. The brothers ...
