Svensk definition
En cellyterceptor för protein-tyrosinkinas som är överrepresenterad i ett avsevärt antal adenokarcinom. Den har omfattande homologi med och kan bilda heterodimerer med EGF-receptorn (epidermal tillväxtfaktorreceptor), erbB-3-receptorn och erbB-4-receptorn. erbB-2-receptorn aktiveras vid heterodimerbildning med någon ligandbunden erbB-receptor.
Engelsk definition
A cell surface protein-tyrosine kinase receptor that is overexpressed in a variety of ADENOCARCINOMAS. It has extensive homology to and heterodimerizes with the EGF RECEPTOR, the ERBB-3 RECEPTOR, and the ERBB-4 RECEPTOR. Activation of the erbB-2 receptor occurs through heterodimer formation with a ligand-bound erbB receptor family member.
