General description
Tie-2 is a member of the tyrosine protein kinase family, is a transmembrane receptor for angiopoietin 1, and may represent one of the earliest markers for cell lineage within mammalian endothelial cells. Its expression is almost only found in human, mouse and rat endothelial cells and angioblasts. Most likely, Tie-2 regulates the differentiation, proper dispersal, and proliferation of these cells during angiogenesis. Mutations in TEK are a cause of VMCM or dominantly inherited venous malformations which are characterized by serpiginious, dilated veins. Tie-2 can be found in placenta and lung tissue. Lower levels of the protein can also be found in kidney, umbilical vein endothelial cells, and brain.
Specificity
Recognizes human Tunica internal endothelial cell kinase (TIE-2), also described as Angiopoietin-1 receptor, p140 TEK, or tyrosine protein kinase receptor. The peptide sequence used as immunogen is 100% conserved in human, rat, mouse, and 94% in bovine.
Immunogen
18 amino acid peptide sequence within the extracellular, N-terminus of human Tie-2
