Description

NRG1 signaling through ErbB receptors plays a central role in neuronal development, myelination, and synaptic plasticity, making a reliably active recombinant form essential for neuroscience research. This partial construct of human pro-neuregulin-1 membrane-bound isoform 6 (residues 20–247), expressed in mammalian cells to preserve native glycosylation, demonstrates strong receptor-binding potency with an EC50 of 18.24–23.66 ng/mL against human ERBB3 in functional ELISA and an ED50 of 2.626–7.598 ng/mL in MCF-7 proliferation assays. These validated activities support use in cell proliferation and survival assays, neuronal differentiation studies, and receptor-ligand binding or competition experiments including SPR-based kinetic analyses. The C-terminal 6×His tag facilitates straightforward purification and oriented immobilization, while purity exceeding 95% by SDS-PAGE and endotoxin levels below 1.0 EU/μg satisfy the criteria typically required for sensitive cell-based assays and in vivo tumor biology models.

Target Background

Function

Direct ligand for ERBB3 and ERBB4 tyrosine kinase receptors. Concomitantly recruits ERBB1 and ERBB2 coreceptors, resulting in ligand-stimulated tyrosine phosphorylation and activation of the ERBB receptors. The multiple isoforms perform diverse functions such as inducing growth and differentiation of epithelial, glial, neuronal, and skeletal muscle cells; inducing expression of acetylcholine receptor in synaptic vesicles during the formation of the neuromuscular junction; stimulating lobuloalveolar budding and milk production in the mammary gland and inducing differentiation of mammary tumor cells; stimulating Schwann cell proliferation; implication in the development of the myocardium such as trabeculation of the developing heart. Isoform 10 may play a role in motor and sensory neuron development. Binds to ERBB4. Binds to ERBB3. Acts as a ligand for integrins and binds (via EGF domain) to integrins ITGAV:ITGB3 or ITGA6:ITGB4. Its binding to integrins and subsequent ternary complex formation with integrins and ERRB3 are essential for NRG1-ERBB signaling. Induces the phosphorylation and activation of MAPK3/ERK1, MAPK1/ERK2 and AKT1. Ligand-dependent ERBB4 endocytosis is essential for the NRG1-mediated activation of these kinases in neurons.

Involvement in disease

A chromosomal aberration involving NRG1 produces gamma-heregulin. Translocation t(8;11) with TENM4. The translocation fuses the 5'-end of TENM4 to NRG1 (isoform 8). The product of this translocation was first thought to be an alternatively spliced isoform. Gamma-heregulin is a soluble activating ligand for the ERBB2-ERBB3 receptor complex and acts as an autocrine growth factor in a specific breast cancer cell line (MDA-MB-175). Not detected in breast carcinoma samples, including ductal, lobular, medullary, and mucinous histological types, neither in other breast cancer cell lines.
