About ErbB2 and PerCP-Cy5.5
ErbB2 This gene encodes a member of the epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor family of receptor tyrosine kinases. This protein has no ligand binding domain of its own and therefore cannot bind growth factors. However, it does bind tightly to other ligand-bound EGF receptor family members to form a heterodimer, stabilizing ligand binding and enhancing kinase-mediated activation of downstream signalling pathways, such as those involving mitogen-activated protein kinase and phosphatidylinositol-3 kinase. Allelic variations at amino acid positions 654 and 655 of isoform a (positions 624 and 625 of isoform b) have been reported, with the most common allele, Ile654/Ile655, shown here. Amplification and/or overexpression of this gene has been reported in numerous cancers, including breast and ovarian tumors. Alternative splicing results in several additional transcript variants, some encoding different isoforms and others that have not been fully characterized. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
PerCP-Cy5.5 PerCP-Cyanine® 5.5 (PerCP-Cy5.5) is a red-emitting tandem fluorophore that was originally designed to make the PerCP fluorophore more stable and increase signal intensity. The donor molecule, PerCP can be excited by the 488-nm blue laser and and transfers energy to the acceptor molecule, Cy5.5, which emitts light that can be captured with a 695/40 nm bandpass filter. PerCP-Cy5.5 has an excitation peak at 482 nm and an emission peak at 695 nm. There are superior alternatives to PerCP and PerCP-Cy5.5 including RealBlue 705 (BD Biosciences), NovaFluor Blue 690 or PerCP-eFluor™ 710.
