Description

General description

Human platelet-derived growth factor receptor, β polypeptide (PDGFRB), also called J03278, M21616, CD140B, JTK12, PDGF-R-β and PDGFR, is receptor that binds specifically to PDGFB and has a tyrosine-protein kinase activity. Is a cell surface tyrosine kinase receptor for members of the platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) family. The PDGFR/PDGF system includes two receptors (PDGFRA and PDGFRB) and four ligands (A, B, C and D). The receptors PDGFRA and PDGFRB are related in sequence and both are members of the class III subtype of receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs). Other class III RTKs are CSF1R, KIT and FLT3. PDGF binding induces receptor homo- and heterodimerization and signal transduction. The expression of the α and β receptors is independently regulated in various cell types. Recombinant soluble PDGFRB binds PDGF with high affinity and is potent PDGF antagonist. The ligands form either homo- or heterodimers (PDGF-AA, -AB, -BB, -CC, -DD). The four PDGFs are inactive in their monomeric forms. The PDGFs bind to the protein tyrosine kinase receptors PDGF receptor-α and -β. These two receptor isoforms dimerize upon binding the PDGF dimer, leading to three possible receptor combinations, namely -αα, -ββ and -αβ. PDGF-CC specifically interacts with PDGFR-αα and -αβ, but not with –ββ, and thereby resembles PDGF-AB. PDGF-DD binds to PDGFR-ββ with high affinity and to PDGFR-αβ to a much lower extent and is regarded as PDGFR-ββ specific. PDGF-AA binds only to PDGFR-αα, while PDGF-BB is the only PDGF that can bind all three receptor combinations with high affinity.

Physical form

Lyophilized from 0.22 μm filtered solution in PBS, pH 7.4. Normally Mannitol or Trehalose is added as protectants before lyophilization.

Reconstitution

Centrifuge the vial prior to opening. Reconstitute in sterile PBS, pH 7.4 to a concentration of 50 μg/mL. Do not vortex. This solution can be stored at 2-8°C for up to 1 month. For extended storage, it is recommended to store at -20°C.
