The APA5 monoclonal antibody specifically binds to the mouse CD140a molecule, otherwise known as the Platelet-Derived Growth Factor (PDGF) Receptor alpha chain. CD140a is a receptor tyrosine kinase expressed on embryonic tissues and adult mesenchymal-derived cells. It binds to PDGF A and B chains and is reported to be involved with wound healing and exhibits chemo-attractant properties. The APA5 antibody blocks the binding of PDGF-AA to the PDGF receptor.
The antibody has been analyzed for quality through the flow cytometric analysis of the relevant cell type. It is recommended that the reagent be titrated for optimal performance for each application.

Subcellular location: | Cell membrane |
Post transnational modification: | Autophosphorylated on tyrosine residues upon ligand binding. Autophosphorylation occurs in trans, i.e. one subunit of the dimeric receptor phosphorylates tyrosine residues on the other subunit. Phosphorylation at Tyr-731 and Tyr-742 is important for interaction with PIK3R1. Phosphorylation at Tyr-720 and Tyr-754 is important for interaction with PTPN11. Phosphorylation at Tyr-762 is important for interaction with CRK. Phosphorylation at Tyr-572 and Tyr-574 is important for interaction with SRC and SRC family members. Phosphorylation at Tyr-988 and Tyr-1018 is important for interaction with PLCG1 (By similarity). |
Tissue Specificity: | Focally expressed in cortical interstitial cells and highly expressed in the interstitium of the papillary region. Also expressed by adventitial cells in arterial vessels. Up-regulated in areas of renal fibrosis. In mice with unilateral ureteral obstruction, expression in cortical interstitial cells becomes prominent at day 4 which increases progressively until day 14. |
