Protein Structures |
PDB and CIF files of the predicted protein structures * Here we show the 3D structure of the proteins using Mol*. AlphaFold produces a per-residue confidence score (pLDDT) between 0 and 100. Model confidence is shown from the pLDDT values per residue. pLDDT corresponds to the model’s prediction of its score on the local Distance Difference Test. It is a measure of local accuracy (from AlphfaFold website). To color code individual residues, we transformed individual PDB files into CIF format. |

| ERBB2 | 15014023 | Association between HER-2/neu and vascular endothelial growth factor expression predicts clinical outcome in primary breast cancer patients. | Activation or overexpression of HER-2/neu is associated with up-regulation of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in human breast cancer cells in vitro. Preclinical experiments indicate that increased expression of VEGF may in part mediate the biologically aggressive phenotype of HER-2/neu-overexpressing human breast cancer. It was the purpose of this study to: (a). evaluate the association between HER-2/neu and VEGF expression in a large clinical cohort of primary breast cancer patients; (b). compare the prognostic significance of VEGF isoforms; and (c). analyze the combined effects of HER-2/neu and VEGF on clinical outcome. | D001943 | Breast Neoplasms |

| ERBB2 | 19035464 | Modification of HER2 pre-mRNA alternative splicing and its effects on breast cancer cells. | The oncogene HER2 is overexpressed in a variety of human tumors, providing a target for anti-cancer molecular therapies. Here, we employed a 2'-O-methoxyethyl (MOE) splice switching oligonucleotide, SSO111, to induce skipping of exon 15 in HER2 pre-mRNA, leading to significant downregulation of full-length HER2 mRNA, and simultaneous upregulation of Delta15HER2 mRNA. SSO111 treatment of SK-BR-3 cells, which highly overexpress HER2, led to inhibition of cell proliferation and induction of apoptosis. The novel Delta15HER2 mRNA encodes a soluble, secreted form of the receptor. Treating SK-BR-3 cells with exogenous Delta15HER2 protein reduced membrane-bound HER2 and decreased HER3 transphosphorylation. Delta15HER2 protein thus has similar activity to an autoinhibitory, natural splice variant of HER2, Herstatin, and to the breast cancer drug Herceptin. Both SSO111 and Delta15HER2 may be potential candidates for the development of novel HER2-targeted cancer therapeutics. | D001943 | Breast Neoplasms |
| ERBB2 | 24802673 | A new class of protein cancer biomarker candidates: differentially expressed splice variants of ERBB2 (HER2/neu) and ERBB1 (EGFR) in breast cancer cell lines. | Combined RNA-Seq and proteomics analyses reveal striking differential expression of splice isoforms of key proteins in important cancer pathways and networks. Even between primary tumor cell lines from histologically similar inflammatory breast cancers, we find striking differences in hormone receptor-negative cell lines that are ERBB2 (Her2/neu)-amplified versus ERBB1 (EGFR) over-expressed with low ERBB2 activity. We have related these findings to protein-protein interaction networks, signaling and metabolic pathways, and methods for predicting functional variants among multiple alternative isoforms. Understanding the upstream ligands and regulators and the downstream pathways and interaction networks for ERBB receptors is certain to be important for explanation and prediction of the variable levels of expression and therapeutic responses of ERBB+tumors in the breast and in other organ sites. Alternative splicing is a remarkable evolutionary development that increases protein diversity from multi-exonic genes without requiring expansion of the genome. It is no longer sufficient to report the up- or down-expression of genes and proteins without dissecting the complexity due to alternative splicing.
