Abstract

HER-2/neu (also called erbB2) encodes a 185-kd tyrosine kinase receptor, named p185, belonging to the class I receptor subfamily. Aberrant expression of HER-2/neu is implicated in many human cancers. An understanding of the signaling pathway of p185 may shed light on the mechanism involved in p185- mediated neoplastic transformation or carcinogenesis. This article reviews recent work on the signal transduction of p185.
