PDGFRα and PDGFRβ share 75% to 85% sequence homology between their two intracellular kinase domains, while the kinase insert and carboxy-terminal tail regions display a lower level (27% to 28%) of homology (1). PDGFRα homodimers bind all PDGF isoforms except those containing PDGF D. PDGFRβ homodimers bind PDGF BB and DD isoforms, as well as the PDGF AB heterodimer. The heteromeric PDGF receptor α\/β binds PDGF B, C, and D homodimers, as well as the PDGF AB heterodimer (2). PDGFRα and PDGFRβ can each form heterodimers with EGFR, which is also activated by PDGF (3). Various cells differ in the total number of receptors present and in the receptor subunit composition, which may account for responsive differences among cell types to PDGF binding (4). Ligand binding induces receptor dimerization and autophosphorylation, followed by binding and activation of cytoplasmic SH2 domain-containing signal transduction molecules, such as GRB2, Src, GAP, PI3 kinase, PLCγ, and NCK. A number of different signaling pathways are initiated by activated PDGF receptors and lead to control of cell growth, actin reorganization, migration, and differentiation (5). Phosphorylation of PDGFRα at Tyr762 was identified at Cell Signaling Technology using PTMScan , our LC-MS\/MS platform for phosphorylation site discovery (6). Tyr762 is located in the activation loop of the PDGFRα kinase domain. Phosphorylation of PDGFRα at this site was also reported by several other labs to be a docking site for CrkII and CrkL upon induction by growth factor treatment (7,8).\n\u003cb\u003eAlternate Names\u003c\/b\u003e\nAlpha platelet-derived growth factor receptor; Alpha-type platelet-derived growth factor receptor; CD140; CD140 antigen-like family member A; CD140A; CD140a antigen; MGC74795; PDGF-R-alpha; PDGFR alpha; PDGFR-2; PDGFR-alpha; PDGFR2; PDGFRA; PDGFRalpha; PGFRA; platelet derived growth factor receptor alpha; Platelet-derived growth factor alpha receptor; Platelet-derived growth factor receptor 2; Platelet-derived growth factor receptor alpha; platelet-derived growth factor receptor, alpha polypeptide; rearranged-in-hypereosinophilia-platelet derived growth factor receptor alpha fusion protein; RHEPDGFRA\n\n\u003cb\u003eSpecification\u003c\/b\u003e\n\nREACTIVITY: H\nSENSITIVITY: Endogenous\nMW (kDa): 190\nSource\/Isotype: Rabbit IgG","brand":"CST","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46797777961129,"sku":"24188T","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/cst-24188t","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
