Clone/AB feature:

(#7G96)

Antibody generation:

This antibody was produced from a hybridoma (mouse myeloma fused with spleen cells from a mouse) immunized with human VEGFR-1 N-terminal recombinant protein. IgG1 fraction of the tissue culture supernatant was purified by Protein G affinity chromatography.

Antigen:

recombinant human VEGFR1 N-terminal fragment

Stability:

Lyophilized samples are stable for 2 years from date of receipt when stored at -70°C. Reconstituted antibody can be aliquoted and stored frozen at < -20 °C for at least for six months without detectable loss of activity.

Reconstitution:

Reconstitute the antibody with 500 µl sterile PBS and the final concentration is 200 µg/ml.

Description:

Endothelial cells express three different vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) receptors, belonging to the family of receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs). They are named VEGFR-1 (Flt-1), VEGFR-2 (KDR/Flk-1), VEGFR-3 (Flt-4). Their expression is almost exclusively restricted to endothelial cells, but VEGFR-1 can also be found on monocytes, dendritic cells and on trophoblast cells. The flt-1 gene was first described in 1990. The receptor contains seven immunoglobulin-like extracellular domains, a single transmembrane region and an intracellular splited tyrosine kinase domain. Compared to VEGFR-2 the Flt-1 receptor has a higher affinity for VEGF but a weaker signaling activity. VEGFR-1 thus leads not to proliferation of endothelial cells, but mediates signals for differentiation. Interestingly a naturally occuring soluble variant of VEGFR-1 (sVEGFR-1) was found in HUVE supernatants in 1996, which is generated by alternative splicing of the flt-1 mRNA.
