Product Specifications

Immunogen

Human osteosarcoma cell membrane extracts

Specificity

Detects human PDGF R alpha. Recognizes the PDGF receptor alpha-subunit; it does not recognize the PDGF receptor beta-subunit. Binds to the PDGF receptor alpha-subunit of primate species (human, monkey, baboon) and dog. Does not recognize rat or mouse receptors and its ability to bind to receptors from other species has not been tested.

Applications for PDGFR alpha Antibody (PRa292) [PE/Cy5.5]

Application
Recommended Usage

Flow Cytometry

Optimal dilutions of this antibody should be experimentally determined.
Application Notes
Optimal dilution of this antibody should be experimentally determined. For optimal results using our Tandem dyes, please avoid prolonged exposure to light or extreme temperature fluctuations. These can lead to irreversible degradation or decoupling. When staining intracellular targets, specific attention to the fixation and permeabilization steps in your flow protocol may be required. Please contact our technical support team at technical@novusbio.com if you have any questions.

Background: PDGF R alpha

Platelet-derived growth factor receptors exhibit tyrosine-protein kinase activity and have been implicated in the control of cell proliferation, survival and migration. PDGF receptors, PDGFR-alpha and PDGFR-beta, have 5 extracellular immunoglobulin-like domains and an intracellular tyrosine kinase domain. Upon binding a PDGF, the receptors form homo-and heterodimers. Dimerization of the receptors results in phosphorylation in the complex. More than 10 different SH2-domain-containing molecules have been shown to bind to different autophosphorylation sites in the PDGF-alpha and beta receptors. PDGF alpha receptors are expressed in oligodendrocyte progenitor cells and PDGF beta receptors are expressed on neurons.
