Questions? Please consult our answers to frequently asked questions at http://www.ebioscience.com/faq. DescriptionThe APA5 monoclonal antibody reacts with the mouse CD140a molecule, the α chain of the platelet derived growth factor receptor (PDGF receptor). PDGFRa is a receptor tyrosine kinase that forms dimers on the surface upon ligand binding and phosphorylates substrates. Dimers of PDGFR consist of either homodimers of α/α, β/β, or heterodimers of α/β and serve as a substrate for its kinase activity. CD140a is expressed by embryonic tissues and mesenchymal-derived cells of the adult mouse tissues. Applications ReportedFor research use only, not for diagnostic or therapeutic use. The APA5 antibody has been reported for use in flow cytometric analysis. Applications TestedThis APA5 antibody has been tested by flow cytometric analysis of NIH-3T3 cells. This can be used at less than or equal to 1 μg per million cells in a 100 μl total staining volume. It is recommended that the antibody be carefully titrated for optimal performance in the assay of interest. References
