Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor Receptor 2 (VEGFR2, also known as KDR/FLK-1) is a ~200kD member of a receptor tyrosine kinase family whose activation plays an essential role in a large number of biological processes such as embryonic development, wound healing, cell proliferation, migration and differentiation.
Like other growth factor receptors upon ligand binding, VEGFR2 forms a dimer and is autophosphorylated on multiple tyrosine residues.
These sites can be involved in the regulation of kinase activity or serve as binding sites for SH2- and phosphotyrosine binding domain containing signaling proteins.
Phosphorylation of tyrosines 1054 and 1059 in the activation loop is required for activation of VEGFR2 and its intrinsic tyrosine kinase activity.
Applications:Suitable for use in Western blot.
Other applications not tested.
Recommended Dilution:Western Blot: 1:1000Optimal dilution to be determined by researcher.
Positive Controls:Porcine aortic endothelial (PAE) cells transfected with a chimeric receptor consisting of the extracellular portion of the CSF-1 receptor fused with the transmembrane and intracellular domains of mouse VEGFR2.
Storage and Stability:May be stored at 4°C for short-term only.
For long-term storage, store at -20°C.
Aliquots are stable for at least 12 months at -20°C.
For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap.
Further dilutions can be made in assay buffer.
