E A Y V M A G V G S P Y V C R L L GHER2
Oncogenic mutations activate kinases by disrupting the autoinhibitorymechanisms that normally stabilize their inactive forms . They targetstructures around the ATP binding cleft that are involved in phosphorylationevents. These structures include the phosphate binding and activation loops.
In normal cell, HER 2 ligand HER2, few heterodimers, weak responsecontrolled cell growth.
In tumor cell, ligands from stroma or tumor cells recruit HER2. HER2, highchances of heterodimer formation, slow internalization, signal present forlong time enhanced response for growth factor , malignant growth.

Her2 as target
Trastuzumab (Herceptin), a humanized monoclonal IgG1antibody that binds
the extracellular domain of HER2 , is effective for HER2 overexpressingbreast cancer patients when used with other cytotoxic agents.
In addition to being active as a single agent, trastuzumab potentiates
the anti-tumor activity of paclitaxel and doxorubicin and cisplatin.

Expression of a HER2 mutant containing a G776YVMA insertion in exon 20was more potent than wild-type HER2 in activating post receptor signaltransducers and in transforming mammary and bronchial epithelial cells.
Aim of this study is to evaluate the potential gain-of-function effects of HER2
mutations.

Pull Down assay
A pull-down assay is a small-scale affinity purification technique similar to immunoprecipitation, except that theantibody is replaced by some other affinity system. In this case, the affinity system consists of a glutathione S-transferase (GST)-, polyHis- or streptavidin-tagged protein or binding domain that is captured by glutathione-,metal chelate (cobalt or nickel)- or biotin-coated agarose beads, respectively. The immobilized fusion-taggedprotein acts as the "bait" to capture a putative binding partner (i.e., the "prey"). In a typical pull-down assay, the
immobilized bait protein is incubated with a cell lysate, and after the prescribed washing steps, the compexes areselectively eluted using competitive analytes or low pH or reducing buffers for in-gel or Western blot analysis

Transwell Migration assay
The transwell migration assay is a commonly used test to study the migratory
response of cells to angiogenic inducers or inhibitors. This assay is also knownas the Boyden or modified Boyden chamber assay
Transwell motility assays were performed utilizing 5 mm pore, 6.5 mm polycarbonate transwell filters . Cells (1.5 X 105 per well)were seeded in serum-free medium onto the upper surface of the filters and allowed to migrate. After 24 hr, the cells on the upper
surface of the filters were wiped off with a cotton swab . Cells that had migrated to the filterunder-side were fixed, stained withDiff-Quik stain set, and counted by bright field microscopy

Soft agarose colony forming assay
Base layers consisting of growth medium containing 0 .8% low-melting point Agarose and 10 mM HEPES(pH 7.5) were poured onto 6-well plates and allowed to solidify. Cells (3 X 104 per well) were plated in
triplicate in top layers consisting o f growth medium containing 0.4% agarose and 5 mM HEPES. Coloniesmeasuring R 50 mm were photographed after 710 days and counted manually
The Soft Agar Assay for Colony Formation is an anchorage independent growth
assay in soft agar, which is considered the most stringent assay for detectingmalignant transformation of cells.

3 Dimensional morphogenesis and indirect immunofluorescence
Three-dimensional culture of MCF-10A cells on reconstituted basement membraneGlandular epithelial cells, such as those in the mammary gland, have several
distinguishing histological features including a polarized morphology, specializedcellcell contacts, and attachment to an underlying basement membrane
Epithelial tumors (carcinomas), requires the disruption of this intact, well-orderedarchitecture.
MCF10A cells expressing HER2 WT , HER2 YVMA , or vector were seeded on Growth Factor Reduced Matrigel in 8-wellchamber slides following the protocol described by Debnath et al. (2003) Morphogenesis of acini was photographed every 2days. For cell number counting, cultures growing on Matrigel were trypsinized and cell numbers were measured in a Coultercounter. Invasion assay was performed in BD BioCoat Growth Factor Reduced Matrigel invasion chambers according to themanufacturers protocol. Immunofluorescence staining of 3D acini was performed as described by Debnath et al. (2003) usingantibodies against beta -catenin, cleaved caspase-3, Ki-67, and Myc tag. Confocal analyses were performed with Zeissinverted LSM510 confocal microscopy system. Indirect immunofluorescence assay (IFA) was performed as describedpreviously ( Wang et al., 2005). Fluorescent images were captured using a Princeton Instruments cooled CCD digital camera
from a Zeiss Axiophot upright microscope . Primary antibodies include Ki-67 and cleaved caspase-3. The fluorescentantibodies are Oregon green -a -mouse IgG and Texas red- a -rabbit IgG

Conclusion
Expression of in-frame YVMA insertion at residue 776 in nontumorigenic BEAS2B andMCF10A epithelial cells was markedly more transforming than wild-type HER2. HER2YVMA
was more potent in inducing serum-free cell proliferation, motility, and tumorigenicity in vivoas well as preventing apoptosis compared to HER2 WT
.
HER2YVMA induced transphosphorylation of kinase-dead EGFR and exhibited higherligand-independent tyrosine phosphorylation and stronger association with
signal transducers that mediate proliferative and prosurvival responses than HER2 WT
Another possible mechanism for activation of the HER2 kinase is transactivation by ligandbound EGFR or HER3/4. I ndeed, coexpression of the EGFR l ig and T GFa with Neu in themammary gland of transgenic mice markedly accelerates tumor onset and progression
compared to mice expressing the Neu or TGF alpha transgenes alone.

Inhibition of mutant HER2 with RNA interference in H1781 lung cancer cells, which contain aVC insertion at G776 in exon 20 of the HER2 gene, inhibited P-MAPK and P-Akt, re-duced
proliferation, and induced cell death. These cells have highly phosphorylated wild-typeEGFR and are insensitive to gefitinib and erlotinib.
EGFR inhibitors would be effective against tumors driven by heterodimers of EGFR andwild-type HER2. In these cancers, HER2 amplifies signals by EGFR/HER2 heterodimers,which remain dependent on the EGFR kinase
cancers expressing mutation/insertions in exon 20 of HER2 would be insensitive to smallmolecule inhibitors of the EGFR tyrosine kinase. a combination of trastuzumab and lapatinibor the irreversible HER2 inhibitor CI-1033 may have clinical activity and is worthy ofprospective investigation.
I
In BEAS2B and MCF10A cells, HER2 YVMA potently induced EGFR phosphorylation. Thistransactivation did not require the EGFR tyrosine kinase in that it was also observed with
catalyti-cally dead K721R EGFR and was not blocked by the EGFR TKIs erlotinib andgefitinib.
