Anti-PDGFRB (Ab-751) antibody produced in rabbit

Platelet derived growth factor receptor β (PDGFRB) is encoded by the gene mapped to human chromosome 5q32. The encoded protein is a type III tyrosine kinase receptor, which exists as a homodimer. This receptor interacts with multiple ligands, but its main physiological ligand is PDGF-BB homodimer.

Peptide sequence around aa. 749-753 (V-D-Y-V-P), according to the protein PDGFRB.

PDGFRB (platelet derived growth factor receptor β), upon interaction with PGDFB, regulates multiple processes such as, sclerotic disorders, wound healing and tumor angiogenesis. Gain-of-function mutation in this gene is linked with Penttinen syndrome, which is an autosomal-dominant disorder. Release of PGDFB by endothelial cells results in the activation of this receptor, which is essential for the recruitment of PDGFRB+ vascular smooth muscle cells and pericytes during blood vessel formation. Loss-of-function mutation in this gene results in the neurodegenerative disorder primary familial brain calcification (PFBC).

PDGF Receptor ? encodes a cell surface tyrosine kinase receptor for members of the platelet-derived growth factor family. These growth factors are mitogens for cells of mesenchymal origin. The identity of the growth factor bound to a receptor monomer determines whether the functional receptor is a homodimer or a heterodimer, composed of both platelet-derived growth factor receptor alpha and beta polypeptides. This gene is flanked on chromosome 5 by the genes for granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor and macrophage-colony stimulating factor receptor; all three genes may be implicated in the 5-q syndrome. A translocation between chromosomes 5 and 12, that fuses this gene to that of the translocation, ETV6, leukemia gene, results in chronic myeloproliferative disorder with eosinophilia.
