Description
This Mouse Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor Receptor 2 (FLK1/KDR) ELISA Kit is intended for quantitative detection of mouse VEGFR2 in cell culture supernates and serum. Strip well format. Reagents for up to 96 tests.
This mouse VEGFR2 ELISA Kit was based on standard sandwich enzyme-linked immune-sorbent assay technology. A monoclonal antibody from rat specific for VEGFR2 has been precoated onto 96-well plates. Standards (NSO, A20-E762) and test samples are added to the wells, a biotinylated detection polyclonal antibody from goat specific for VEGFR2 is added subsequently and then followed by washing with PBS or TBS buffer. Avidin-Biotin-Peroxidase Complex was added and unbound conjugates were washed away with PBS or TBS buffer. HRP substrate TMB was used to visualize HRP enzymatic reaction. TMB was catalyzed by HRP to produce a blue color product that changed into yellow after adding acidic stop solution. The density of yellow is proportional to the mouse VEGFR2 amount of sample captured in plate.
The capture antibody is a monoclonal antibody from rat, the detection antibody is a biotinylated polyclonal antibody from goat. Expression system for standard: Vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2 (VEGFR-2) is a VEGF receptor. This receptor, known as kinase insert domain receptor, is a type III receptor tyrosine kinase. It is mapped to 4q12. This gene encodes one of the two receptors of the VEGF. It functions as the main mediator of VEGF-induced endothelial proliferation, survival, migration, tubular morphogenesis and sprouting. The signalling and trafficking of this receptor are regulated by multiple factors, including Rab GTPase, P2Y purine nucleotide receptor, integrin alphaVbeta3, T-cell protein tyrosine phosphatase, etc. VEGF receptor 2 and the adherens junction act as shear-stress cotransducers, mediating the transduction of shear-stress signals into vascular endothelial cells. In addition to those, VEGFR-2 is also a positive functional marker defining stem cells and distinguishing them from progenitors
