Description

Introduction
Endothelial cells express three different vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) receptors, belonging to the family of receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs). They are named VEGFR-1 (Flt-1), VEGFR-2 (KDR/Flk-1), VEGFR-3 (Flt-4). Their expression is almost exclusively restricted to endothelial cells, but VEGFR-1 can also be found on monocytes. All VEGF-receptors have seven immunoglobulin-like extracellular domains, a single transmembrane region and an intracellular split tyrosine kinase domain. VEGFR-2 has a lower affinity for VEGF than the Flt-1 receptor, but a higher signaling activity. Mitogenic activity in endothelial cells is mainly mediated by VEGFR-2 leading to their proliferation.
Differential splicing of the flt-1 gene leads to the formation of a secreted, soluble variant of VEGFR-1 (sVEGFR-1). No naturally occuring, secreted forms of VEGFR-2 have so far been reported. The binding of VEGF165 to VEGFR-2 is dependent on heparin.

BP000995-PKA-242: Recombinant Human VEGFR2

Source:Insect Cells-derived.
A disulfide-linked homodimeric, glycosylated, polypeptide containing 757 amino acids and having a molecular mass of 160 kDa.
The activity of VEGFR2 D1-7 was determined by its ability to abolish the binding of iodinated VEGF to solid surfaces or cell surfaces receptors. The ED50 for this effect is typically 10.0 ng/ml, corresponding to a specific activity of 100,000 IU/mg.
Purity > 95%, by SDS-PAGE.
Formulation: KDR was lyophilized from a concentrated (1 ug/ml) sterile solution containing 25 mM MES pH-5.5 and 100 mM NaCl.
Reconstitution: It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized VEGFR2 in sterile water not less than 100 ug/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions.

Shipping: The product is shipped at ambient temperature. Upon receipt, store it immediately at the temperature recommended below.
Stability & Storage: Use a manual defrost freezer and avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
12 months from date of receipt, -20 to -70°C as supplied.
1 month, 2 to 8°C under sterile conditions after reconstitution.
3 months, -20 to -70°C under sterile conditions after reconstitution.
