General description

Fibroblast Growth Factor Receptor-3 (FGFR 3) is a protein that belongs to Tyr protein kinase family and is expressed in various fetal and adult human and animal tissues. It plays a vital role in inducing apoptosis in chondrogenic ATDC5 cells. It also facilitates cell proliferation and differentiation.

Specificity

The antibody reacts specifically with FGFR-3 in lysates of transfected cells. No reaction with FGFR-1 and FGFR-2 is detected.

Immunogen

synthetic peptide corresponding to amino acids 792-806 of the cytoplasmic region of human FGFR-3 with N-terminal added lysine.

Application

Anti-Fibroblast Growth Factor Receptor-3, cytoplasmic antibody can be used in immunohistochemistry (diluted 1:250) using Trypsin-digested, human and animal tissue sections for identification of FGFR-3. It can also be used in immunoprecipitation.
Applications in which this antibody has been used successfully, and the associated peer-reviewed papers, are given below.

Western Blotting (1 paper)

Biochem/physiol Actions

Fibroblast Growth Factor Receptor-3 (FGFR-3) plays a vital role in inducing apoptosis in chondrogenic ATDC5 cells. It also facilitates cell proliferation and differentiation. Mutations in the FGFR-3 gene leads to Wolf-Hirshhorn syndrome (growth failure, mental retardation, cardiac and bone malformations) and achondroplasia.

Physical form

Solution in 0.01 M phosphate buffered saline, pH 7.4, containing 1% bovine serum albumin and 15 mM sodium azide.
