CST, 47371SF, FLT3 (E5P4X) Mouse Monoclonal Antibody (BSA and Azide Free)

Monoclonal Antibody for studying FLT3. Validated for ELISA+. Highly specific and rigorously validated in-house, FLT3 (E5P4X) Mouse Monoclonal Antibody (BSA and Azide Free) (CST #47371) is ready to ship. Product Usage Information This formulation is ideal for use with technologies requiring specialized or custom antibody labeling, including fluorophores, metals, lanthanides, and oligonucleotides. It is not recommended for ChIP, ChIP-seq, CUT&RUN or CUT&Tag assays. If you require a carrier free formulation for chromatin profiling, please contact us . Optimal dilutions/concentrations should be determined by the end user. BSA and Azide Free antibodies are quality control tested by size exclusion chromatography (SEC) to determine antibody integrity. Formulation Supplied in 1X PBS (10 mM Na 2 HPO 4 , 3 mM KCl, 2 mM KH 2 PO 4 , and 140 mM NaCl (pH 7.8)). BSA and Azide Free. Storage Store at -20°C. This product will freeze at -20°C so it is recommended to aliquot into single-use vials to avoid multiple freeze/thaw cycles. A slight precipitate may be present and can be dissolved by gently vortexing. This will not interfere with antibody performance. Specificity / Sensitivity FLT3 (E5P4X) Mouse Monoclonal Antibody (BSA and Azide Free) detects endogenous levels of FLT3 protein. Species Reactivity: Human Source / Purification Monoclonal antibody is produced by immunizing animals with a fragment corresponding to the extracellular domain of human FLT3. Background FMS-related tyrosine kinase 3 (FLT3, also called FLK2) is a member of the Type III receptor tyrosine kinase family, which includes c-Kit, PDGFR, and M-CSF receptors. FLT3 is expressed on early hematopoietic progenitor cells and supports growth and differentiation within the hematopoietic system (1,2). FLT3 is activated after binding with its ligand FL, which results in a cascade of tyrosine autophosphorylation and tyrosine phosphorylation of downstream substrates (3). The p85 subunit of PI3 kinase, SHP2, GRB2, and Shc have all been reported to associate with FLT3 after FL stimulation (4-6). Tyr589/591 is located in the juxtamembrane region of FLT3 and may play an important role in regulation of FLT3 tyrosine kinase activity. Somatic mutations of FLT3 consisting of internal tandem duplications (ITDs) occur in 20% of patients with acute myeloid leukemia (7).
