General description
CSF1R (Colony stimulating factor 1 receptor), a type III receptor tyrosine kinase, is a member of the platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) receptor family. Structurally, it is composed of five immunoglobulin-like domains, a transmembrane domain, a juxtamembrane domain (JM) and a protein kinase domain separated into two parts by an insert domain (KID).
CSF1R is located on human chromosome 5q32.
Immunogen
Macrophage colony-stimulating factor 1 receptor precursor recombinant protein epitope signature tag (PrEST)
Application
Anti-CSF1R antibody has been used:
- in cell lysis
- in immunoprecipitation
- in western blotting
- in immunohistochemical analysis
Biochem/physiol Actions
CSF1R (Colony stimulating factor 1 receptor) is a major molecule in the innate immunity, cancer, and inflammatory diseases, including systemic lupus erythematosus, arthritis, atherosclerosis and obesity. It regulates developmental activities including cell survival, proliferation, differentiation, and function of mononuclear phagocytes. It has been reported that CSF-1 autocrine loop helps to activate macrophages. In actual state, it exists as an autoinhibited form, and upon activation, it dimerizes. Later, it autophosphorylates tyrosine residues in the intracellular domain, followed by the recruitment of signaling molecules as well as internalization of the receptor. Mutation in the CSF1R causes several diseases including myeloid malignancies.
Features and Benefits
Prestige Antibodies® are highly characterized and extensively validated antibodies with the added benefit of all available characterization data for each target being accessible via the Human Protein Atlas portal linked just below the product name at the top of this page. The uniqueness and low cross-reactivity of the Prestige Antibodies® to other proteins are due to a thorough selection of antigen regions, affinity purification, and stringent selection. Prestige antigen controls are available for every corresponding Prestige Antibody and can be found in the linkage section.
Every Prestige Antibody is tested in the following ways:
- IHC tissue array of 44 normal human tissues and 20 of the most common cancer type tissues.
- Protein array of 364 human recombinant protein fragments.
Linkage
Corresponding Antigen APREST86535.
