ErbB2 (or HER2) is a receptor tyrosine kinase overexpressed in some breast cancers and associated with poor prognosis. Treatments targeting the receptor extracellular and kinase domains have greatly improved disease outcome in the last 20 years. In parallel, the structures of these domains have been described, enabling better mechanistic understanding of the receptor function and targeted inhibition. However, the ErbB2 disordered C-terminal cytoplasmic tail (CtErbB2) remains very poorly characterized in terms of structure, dynamics, and detailed functional mechanism. Yet, it is where signal transduction is triggered via phosphorylation of tyrosine residues and carried out via interaction with adaptor proteins. Here, we report the first description, to our knowledge, of the ErbB2 disordered tail at atomic resolution using NMR, complemented by small-angle x-ray scattering. We show that although no part of CtErbB2 has any fully populated secondary or tertiary structure, it contains several transient α-helices and numerous transient polyproline II helices, populated up to 20 and 40%, respectively, and low but significant compaction. The presence of some structural elements suggests, along the lines of the results obtained for EGFR (ErbB1), that they may have a functional role in ErbB2’s autoregulation processes. In addition, the transient formation of polyproline II helices is compliant with previously suggested interactions with SH3 domains. All in all, our in-depth structural study opens perspectives in the mechanistic understanding of ErbB2.
