Goat Anti-Human KDR polyclonal antibody for ELISA(Det), WB. VEGF R2 (KDR/Flk-1), VEGF R1 (Flt-1) and VEGF R3 (Flt-4) belong to the class III subfamily of receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs). All three receptors contain seven immunoglobulin-like repeats in their extracellular domains and kinase insert domains in their intracellular regions. The expression of VEGF R1, 2, and 3 is almost exclusively restricted to the endothelial cells. These receptors are likely to play essential roles in vasculogenesis and angiogenesis.VEGF R2 cDNA encodes a 1356 amino acid (aa) residue precursor protein with a 19 aa residue signal peptide. Mature VEGF R2 is composed of a 745 aa residue extracellular domain, a 25 aa residue transmembrane domain and a 567 aa residue cytoplasmic domain. In contrast to VEGF R1 which binds both PlGF and VEGF with high affinity, VEGF R2 binds VEGF but not PlGF with high affinity.
