Recombinant Human FLT1 Protein (aa 1-756, His Tag)

C-His

Generally, lyophilized proteins are stable for up to 12 months when stored at -20 to -80°C. Reconstituted protein solution can be stored at 4-8°C for 2-7 days. Aliquots of reconstituted samples are stable at < -20°C for 3 months.

110-120 kDa

Vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 1, also known as VEGFR-1, Fms-like tyrosine kinase 1, Tyrosine-protein kinase FRT, Tyrosine-protein kinase receptor FLT, Vascular permeability factor receptor and FLT1, is a single-pass type I membrane protein and secreted protein which belongs to theprotein kinase superfamily, Tyr protein kinase family and CSF-1/PDGF receptor subfamily. VEGFR-1 / FLT1 contains sevenIg-like C2-type (immunoglobulin-like) domains and oneprotein kinase domain. VEGFR-1 / FLT1 is expressed mostly in normal lung, but also in placenta, liver, kidney, heart and brain tissues. It is specifically expressed in most of the vascular endothelial cells, and also expressed in peripheral blood monocytes. VEGFR-1 / FLT1 is not expressed in tumor cell lines. VEGFR-1 / FLT1 is an essential receptor tyrosine kinase that regulates mammalian vascular development and embryogenesis. EGF-induced angiogenesis requires inverse regulation of VEGFR-1 and VEGFR-2 in tumor-associated endothelial cells. VEGFR-1 / FLT1 is a receptor for VEGF, VEGFB and PGF. It has a tyrosine-protein kinase activity. The VEGF-kinase ligand/receptor signaling system plays a key role in vascular development and regulation of vascular permeability.

Measured by its ability to inhibit the VEGF-dependent proliferation of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC), The ED50 for this effect is typically 10-40 ng/mL in the presence of 10 ng/mL human VEGF165.
