Type I receptor for TGF-beta family ligands BMP9/GDF2 and BMP10 and important regulator of normal blood vessel development. On ligand binding, forms a receptor complex consisting of two type II and two type I transmembrane serine/threonine kinases. Type II receptors phosphorylate and activate type I receptors which autophosphorylate, then bind and activate SMAD transcriptional regulators. May bind activin as well.

The recommended antibody orientation is based on internal optimization for ELISA-based assays. Antibody orientation is assay dependent and needs to be optimized for each assay type. Please note that the range provided for this antibody is only an estimation based on the performance of the product using the recommended antibody pair. Performance of the antibody pair will depend on the specific characteristics of your assay. We guarantee the product works in sandwich ELISA, but we do not guarantee the sensitivity or dynamic range of the antibody in your assay.

Our carrier-free antibodies are typically supplied in a PBS-only formulation, purified and free of BSA, sodium azide and glycerol. The carrier-free buffer and high concentration allow for increased conjugation efficiency.
This conjugation-ready format is designed for use with fluorochromes, metal isotopes, oligonucleotides, and enzymes, which makes them ideal for antibody labelling, functional and cell-based assays, flow-based assays (e.g. mass cytometry) and Multiplex Imaging applications.
Use our conjugation kits for antibody conjugates that are ready-to-use in as little as 20 minutes with 1 minute hands-on-time and 100% antibody recovery: available for fluorescent dyes, HRP, biotin and gold.
ALK-1 also known as ACVRL1 or ALK1 protein is a receptor serine/threonine kinase with a molecular mass of approximately 55 kDa. It plays an important role in the TGF-beta superfamily signaling particularly in angiogenesis and blood vessel development. Expressed mainly in endothelial cells ALK-1 mediates cellular responses essential for maintaining vascular stability. The careful balance of its signaling is necessary indicating its importance in physiological conditions.
The function of ALK-1 extends to the formation and maintenance of vascular endothelium as part of the larger receptor complex. It interacts with ligands such as BMP9 and BMP10 which regulate endothelial cell proliferation and differentiation. ALK-1's role as part of this receptor complex highlights its involvement in controlling the fine balance between angiogenic and anti-angiogenic processes. Its biological activity is vital for healthy vascular development and homeostasis.
ALK-1 activation is a part of the BMP signaling pathway a branch of the larger TGF-beta pathway. This pathway is significant in various cellular processes including growth and differentiation. ALK-1 interacts with other signalling mediators like SMAD1/5/8 proteins which translocate to the nucleus to affect gene expression. Connecting with these pathways ALK-1 aligns closely with ACVR2A and ENG (Endoglin) which further highlight its role in vascular biology.
ALK-1 mutations or dysregulation leads to conditions such as hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia (HHT) and pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). These conditions showcase the important role ALK-1 plays in vascular integrity and signaling. ALK-1 is connected to disorders through interactions with proteins such as ENG further highlighting its involvement in vascular-related pathologies. Maintaining precise ALK-1 function is pivotal to preventing these disorders indicating its potential as a therapeutic target or biomarker.
