Fibroblast Growth Factor Receptor beta (Flg, FGFRb, FGFR1) (APC)

Currently four FGF receptors have been identified, FGFR-1 (flg), FGFR-2 (bek), FGFR-3, and FGFR-4. FGFR-1 and FGFR-2 exist in multiple forms that represent alternative splicing of their respective genes. The FGF Receptor consists of three immunoglobulin-like domains, a transmembrane region and a cytosolic tyrosine kinase domain which is activated by ligand binding. FGFs play important roles in angiogenesis, wound healing, tumorigenesis and metastasis. The FGF family consists of 7 members, FGF-1 through FGF-7. FGFs 1 and 2 are also known as basic FGF (bFGF) and acidic FGF (aFGF), respectively. It is known that multiple FGFs can bind and activate FGFR-1, FGFR-2, and FGFR-3. ||Applications: |Suitable for use in FLISA, Western Blot, Immunoprecipitation, Flow Cytometry and Immunohistochemistry.
