Scientific context
PDGFRA is a receptor-tyrosine kinase that is activated upon binding platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF). Ligand binding causes dimerization of the receptor to activate signalling cascades to activate effector substrates such as PIK3R1, PLCG1, and PTPN11. Effector substrates will cause release of calcium from endoplasmic reticulum, by PLCG1, and activation of AKT1, by PIK3R1. This ultimately leads to growth and proliferation in cells by the MAPK and STAT transcription factor activation. PDGFRA is negatively regulated by protein phosphatases to cause inactivation and internalization. Due to PDGFRA's role in cellular growth its dysfunction may lead tumourigenesis. A high number of gastrointestinal stromal tumours have been implicated in PDGFRA dysfunction and constitutive activation. Typically mis-sense or deletion mutations were found to cause constitutively activated PDGFRA. Furthermore, a fusion protein of PDGFRA with BCR can arise from a translocation event with the PDGFRA gene locus. This fusion protein has been implicated in the development of chronic myeloid leukemias.

Description
The Rabbit Anti- PDGFR alpha Polyclonal: RPE is a α- or alpha protein sometimes glycoprotein present in blood. This antibody needs to be stored at + 4°C in a fridge short term in a concentrated dilution. Freeze thaw will destroy a percentage in every cycle and should be avoided. Antibody for research use.

Test
StressMark antibodies supplies antibodies that are for research of human proteins.
-
Properties
Human proteins, cDNA and human recombinants are used in human reactive ELISA kits and to produce anti-human mono and polyclonal antibodies. Modern humans (Homo sapiens, primarily ssp. Homo sapiens sapiens). Depending on the epitopes used human ELISA kits can be cross reactive to many other species. Mainly analyzed are human serum, plasma, urine, saliva, human cell culture supernatants and biological samples.

About
Polyclonals can be used for Western blot, immunohistochemistry on frozen slices or parrafin fixed tissues. The advantage is that there are more epitopes available in a polyclonal antiserum to detect the proteins than in monoclonal sera. Rabbits are used for polyclonal antibody production by StressMark antibodies. Rabbit antibodies are very stable and can be stored for several days at room temperature. StressMark antibodies adds sodium azide and glycerol to enhance the stability of the rabbit polyclonal antibodies. Anti-human, anti mouse antibodies to highly immunogenic selected peptide sequences are" monoclonal like" since the epitope to which they are directed is less than 35 amino acids long.
