Target

  • Function

    Receptor that binds both PDGFA and PDGFB and has a tyrosine-protein kinase activity.
  • Tissue specificity

    Expressed in primary and metastatic colon tumors and in normal colon tissue. Tumors may express a different isoform to that found in normal tissue.
  • Involvement in disease

    Note=A chromosomal aberration involving PDGFRA is found in some cases of hypereosinophilic syndrome. Interstitial chromosomal deletion del(4)(q12q12) causes the fusion of FIP1L1 and PDGFRA (FIP1L1-PDGFRA).
  • Sequence similarities

    Belongs to the protein kinase superfamily. Tyr protein kinase family. CSF-1/PDGF receptor subfamily.
    Contains 5 Ig-like C2-type (immunoglobulin-like) domains.
    Contains 1 protein kinase domain.
  • Cellular localization

    Membrane.
  • Target information above from: UniProt accession P16234 The UniProt Consortium
    The Universal Protein Resource (UniProt) in 2010
    Nucleic Acids Res. 38:D142-D148 (2010) .

    Immunohistochemical analysis of paraffin-embedded Human colonic carcinoma tissue labeling PDGFR alpha with ab134123 at 1/500 dilution followed by a ready to use Rabbit specific IHC polymer detection kit HRP/DAB (ab209101). Positive staining on stromal cells in human colonic carcinoma. The section was incubated with ab134123 for 30 mins at room temperature. The immunostaining was performed on a Leica Biosystems BOND® RX instrument Counterstained with Hematoxylin.

    Lanes 1 - 2: Merged signal (red and green). Green - ab134123 observed at 180 kDa. Red - loading control ab8245 (Mouse anti-GAPDH antibody [6C5]) observed at 37 kDa.

    ab134123 was shown to react with PDGFR alpha in wild-type SH-SY5Y cells in Western blot with loss of signal observed in PDGFRA knockout cell line ab275335 (knockout cell lysate ab275522). Wild-type SH-SY5Y and PDGFRA knockout cell lysates were subjected to SDS-PAGE. Membranes were blocked in 3 % milk in TBS-T (0.1 % Tween®) before incubation with ab134123 and ab8245 (Mouse anti-GAPDH antibody [6C5]) overnight at 4 °C at a 1 in 1000 dilution and a 1 in 20000 dilution respectively. Blots were incubated with Goat anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (IRDye® 800CW) preabsorbed (ab216773) and Goat anti-Mouse IgG H&L (IRDye® 680RD) preabsorbed (ab216776) secondary antibodies at 1 in 20000 dilution for 1 h at room temperature before imaging.
