Name : Mouse PDGF R alpha/PDGFRA Protein

Product Source :
Recombinant Mouse PDGF R alpha/PDGFRA Protein is expressed from HEK293 with His tag at the C-Terminus. It contains Ser29-Ala528.[Accession | P26618-1]

Molecular Weight :
The protein has a predicted MW of 57.08 kDa. Due to glycosylation, the protein migrates to 68-80 kDa based on Tris-Bis PAGE result.

Endotoxin Level :
Less than 1EU per μg by the LAL method.

Purity :
> 95% as determined by Tris-Bis PAGE> 90% as determined by HPLC

Formulation :
Lyophilized from 0.22 μm filtered solution in PBS (pH 7.4). Normally 8% trehalose is added as protectant before lyophilization.

Reconstitution :
Centrifuge the tube before opening. Reconstituting to a concentration more than 100 μg/ml is recommended. Dissolve the lyophilized protein in distilled water.

Storage and Stability :
-20 to -80°C for 12 months as supplied from date of receipt. -80°C for 3-6 months after reconstitution. 2-8°C for 2-7 days after reconstitution. Recommend to aliquot the protein into smaller quantities for optimal storage. Please minimize freeze-thaw cycles.

Product Concentration :
Tris-Bis PAGE Mouse PDGF R alpha on Tris-Bis PAGE under reduced condition. The purity is greater than 95%. SEC-HPLC The purity of Mouse PDGF R alpha is greater than 90% as determined by SEC-HPLC.

Background :
Platelet-derived growth factor is commonly known as a mitogen. Many research data suggest a role for PDGF-beta R in the mitogenic response of mesangial cells. There are four members of PDGF family known as PDGF-A chain, PDGF-B chain, PDGF-C chain and PDGF-D chain, which in active forms are dimers. As far as two receptors PDGF-alpha R and PDGF-beta R are known to bind PDGF.

Synonyms :
PDGFRA; CD140A; PDGFR2; RHEPDGFRA; MGC74795; PDGFR-2
