Description: KDR(Kinase Insert Domain Receptor), also known as FLK1, VEGFR or VEGFR2, is a VEGF receptor. KDR is the human gene encoding it. Sait et al.(1995) likewise corrected the assignment to chromosome 4q11-q12 to the same region occupied also by PDGFRA and KIT, thus indicating the location of a cluster of receptor tyrosine kinase genes. Vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF) is the only mitogen that specifically acts on endothelial cells. Its expression is upregulated by hypoxia, and its cell-surface receptor, known as fetal liver kinase-1(Flk1) in mouse, is exclusively expressed in endothelial cells(Plate et al., 1993). Flk1 is the mouse homolog of KDR(Matthews et al., 1991).
Immunogen: An amino acid sequence from the middle region of human VEGF Receptor 2 (HHIHWYWQLEEECANE) was used as the immunogen for this VEGFR2 antibody.
Storage: After reconstitution, the VEGFR2 antibody can be stored for up to one month at 4oC. For long-term, aliquot and store at -20 °C. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing.
