Catalog Number P80347-R08H
Organism Species Rat
Host Human Cells
Synonyms PDGFRB, Pdgfr, Pdgfr1
Molecular Weight The recombinant rat PDGFRB comprises 510 amino acids and predicts a molecular mass of 57.6 kDa. The apparent molecular mass of the recombinant protein is approximately 92 kDa in SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions due to glycosylation.
predicted N Leu 32
SDS-PAGE
Purity > 95 % as determined by SDS-PAGE
Protein Construction A DNA sequence encoding the rat PDGFRB (Q05030) (Met1-Lys530) was expressed, fused with a polyhistidine tag at the C-terminus.
Bio-activity Measured by its binding ability in a functional ELISA. Immobilized rat PDGFRB-His at 10 μg/ml (100 μl/well) can bind Cynomolgus PDGFB (P90030-C04H), The EC50 of Cynomolgus PDGFB (P90030-C04H) is 3-7 ng/ml.

Formulation Lyophilized from sterile PBS, pH 7.4
1. Normally 5 % - 8 % trehalose, mannitol and 0.01% Tween80 are added as protectants before lyophilization. Specific concentrations are included in the hardcopy of COA.
Background The cluster of differentiation (CD) system is commonly used as cell markers in immunophynotyping. Different kinds of cells in the immune system can be identified through the surface CD molecules which associating with the immune function of the cell. There are more than 320 CD unique clusters and subclusters have been identified. Some of the CD molecules serve as receptors or ligands important to the cell through initiating a signal cascade which then alter the behavior of the cell. Some CD proteins do not take part in cell signal process but have other functions such as cell adhesion. CD140b, also known as PDGFRB, is a member of the CD system. CD140b is a cell surface tyrosine kinase receptor essencial for development interacting with the platelet-derived growth factors (PDGFs) which serves as mitogens for mesenchymal cells. CD140b can bind with platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF)-B, that are secreted by tumors and phosphorylation of PDGFR-β was correlated with depth of cancer invasion at statistically significant level.
