Phosphorylation of mutationally introduced tyrosine in the activation loop of HER2 confers gain-of-function activity.

Phosphorylation of mutationally introduced tyrosine in the activation loop of HER2 confers gain-of-function activity.

Amplification, overexpression, and somatic mutation of the HER2 gene have been reported to play a critical role in tumorigenesis of various cancers.
