Scientific Data Images for PDGFR alpha Antibody (APA5) [Biotin]

Flow Cytometry: PDGF R alpha Antibody (APA5) [Biotin] [NBP1-43581] - Staining of NIH/3T3 cell line with 0.5 ug of Anti-Mouse CD140a (PDGF Receptor a) Biotin followed by Streptavidin PE . Appropriate isotype controls were used (open histogram). Total viable cells were used for analysis.

Applications for PDGFR alpha Antibody (APA5) [Biotin]

Application
Recommended Usage

Flow Cytometry

1:10-1:1000
Application Notes
The APA5 antibody has been tested by flow cytometric analysis of the NIH-3T3 cell line. This can be used at less than or equal to 1 ug per test. Cell number should be determined empirically but can range from 10^5to 10^8cells/test.

In flow cytometry, we recommend using a cell surface staining protocol and fixation and permeabilization is not required to get staining. If fixation/permeabilization is needed for other markers in the same experiment, we recommend doing all surface staining prior to the fix/perm procedure. This antibody may not bind to a fixed epitope.

Background: PDGF R alpha

The APA5 monoclonal antibody reacts with the mouse CD140a molecule, the alpha chain of the platelet derived growth factor receptor (PDGF receptor). PDGFRa is a receptor tyrosine kinase that forms dimers on the surface upon ligand binding and phosphorylates substrates. Dimers of PDGFR consist of either homodimers of alpha/alpha, beta/beta, or heterodimers of alpha/beta and serve as a substrate for its kinase activity. CD140a is expressed by embryonic tissues and mesenchymal-derived cells of the adult mouse tissues.

Long Name
