The Rabbit Polyclonal anti-PDGFRB antibody (Clone RB01554) (ABIN392034) specifically detects PDGFRB in WB, IF, IHC (p) and FACS.
The antibody is reactive with Human samples.
This antibody is prepared by Saturated Ammonium Sulfate (SAS) precipitation followed by dialysis against PBS.
Immunogen
This PDGFRB antibody is generated from rabbits immunized with a KLH conjugated synthetic peptide between 40-72 amino acids from the N-terminal region of human PDGFRB.
PDGFRB is 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. The 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 the gene to that of the translocation, ETS, leukemia gene, results in chronic myelomonocytic leukemia.
