Western blot: 0.5-2.0 μg/mL. MW = 180 kDa.

Flow cytometry: Dilute the antibody to 25 μg/mL and use 10-20 μL antibody for 1-2 x 10E5 cells in a total volume of 200-250 μL. Visualize with appropriate secondary antibodies.

ELISA: 1:10,000 - 1:100,000, using 50-100ng of control peptide/well.

Optimal working dilutions must be determined by end user.

Recognizes Human Flt-1 (fms-like tyrosine kinase). Flt-1 (human 1338 aa, rat 1336 aa, and mouse 1330aa), a putative receptor protein tyrosine kinase, is a receptor for VEGF and PLGF. Flt-1 has also been described as VEGFR1 and Flk-2. It is type 1 membrane protein and is expressed in normal lung, placenta, liver, kidney, heart, and brain but not in tumor cells (Shibuya et al., 1990; Matsushime et al., 1987; Yamane et al., 1994; Finnerty et al., 1993; Choi et al., 1994; Plouet et al., 1989; Simon et al.,

1998; Sait et al., 1995; deVries et al., 1992).

SPECIES REACTIVITIES:

Antibody crossreacts with mouse Flt-1. No significant sequence homology is seen with human VEGF-R2/KDR or other related kinases. Antibody crossreactivity in other species is not established.
