| Application: | All Prestige Antibodies Powered by Atlas Antibodies are developed and validated by the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) project and as a result, are supported by the most extensive characterization in the industry. The Human Protein Atlas project can be subdivided into three efforts: Human Tissue Atlas, Cancer Atlas, and Human Cell Atlas. The antibodies that have been generated in support of the Tissue and Cancer Atlas projects have been tested by immunohistochemistry against hundreds of normal and disease tissues and through the recent efforts of the Human Cell Atlas project, many have been characterized by immunofluorescence to map the human proteome not only at the tissue level but now at the subcellular level. These images and the collection of this vast data set can be viewed on the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) site by clicking on the Image Gallery link. We also provide Prestige Antibodies® protocols and other useful information. |
| Biochem/physiol Actions: | ERBB4 (erb-b2 receptor tyrosine kinase 4) is involved in milk production and anabolic processes in normal mammary epithelia and cancer by controlling the YAP/Hippo pathway and mevalonate pathways. Its phosphatidyl inositol 3-kinase (PI3-K) binding site interacts with several EGF family members including neuregulins (NRG) for cellular responses related to cell proliferation, invasion, and cell growth suppression. Mutation in the kinase domain of ERBB4 is responsible for the malignant cancer cell growth. ERBB4 identifies oncogenic somatic mutations in high-risk early breast cancer, which proves its prognostic marker quality. Mutation in the gene also causes a neurological disorder, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). |

| Features and Benefits: | Prestige Antibodies® are highly characterized and extensively validated antibodies with the added benefit of all available characterization data for each target being accessible via the Human Protein Atlas portal linked just below the product name at the top of this page. The uniqueness and low cross-reactivity of the Prestige Antibodies® to other proteins are due to a thorough selection of antigen regions, affinity purification, and stringent selection. Prestige antigen controls are available for every corresponding Prestige Antibody and can be found in the linkage section. Every Prestige Antibody is tested in the following ways: • IHC tissue array of 44 normal human tissues and 20 of the most common cancer type tissues. • Protein array of 364 human recombinant protein fragments. |
| General description: | ERBB4 (erb-b2 receptor tyrosine kinase 4) is a tissue-specific, tyrosine kinase receptor belonging to the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) subfamily of receptor tyrosine kinases. It exists in two isoform, which are expressed mainly in the neural tissues such as cerebellum. Its expression also has been found in the kidney and heart. The functional activity of the protein is controlled by the neuregulins (NRG), betacellulin (BTC), and heparin-binding EGF-like growth factor. |
