Name :
Human KDR protein (extracellular domain), Fc-fusion, recombinant

Description :
Vascular endothelial cell growth factors (VEGFs) are secreted polypeptides with a highly conserved cystine-knot structure similar to that of the platelet-derived growth factors (PDGFs). VEGFs play important roles in vascular development and in diseases involving abnormal growth of blood vessels such as tumor-related angiogenesis. VEGFs stimulate angiogenesis by binding to the specific receptors (VEGFRs) on the surface of vascular endothelial cells. All the three VEGFRs, VEGFR1 (Flt-1), VEGFR2 (KDR/Flk-1/CD309), and VEGFR3 (Flt-4), belong to the CSF-1/PDGF receptor subfamily of receptor tyrosine kinase superfamily (RTKs). Each VEGFR contains 7 immunoglobulin (Ig)-like C2-type domains in the extracellular region and an intracellular kinase domain. VEGFR2 is thought to be the primary inducer of VEGF-mediated blood vessel growth. It acts as a cell-surface receptor for VEGFA, VEGFC and VEGFD with an essential role in the regulation of angiogenesis, vascular development, vascular permeability, and embryonic hematopoiesis. VEGFR2 is monomeric in the absence of ligands and exists as a dimer in the presence of bound VEGF ligands. It can also form heterodimers with VEGFR1 and VEGFR3. VEGFR2 is also known as an early marker for endothelial cell progenitors, whose expression is restricted to endothelial cells. VEGFR-2-mediated signaling promotes proliferation, survival, migration and differentiation of endothelial cells. Mutations of vegfr2 are implicated in infantile capillary hemangiomas. Targeting VEGF/VEGFR signal transduction pathways has shown therapeutic benefits in multiple diseases.

Gene Symbol :
The recombinant human KDR/VEGFR2/CD309 extracellular or ecto-domain (ECD) Fc-fusion protein is expressed as a 756 amino acid protein consisting of Ala20 – Glu764 region of KDR and a C-terminal Fc from human IgG1, which exists as a dimer under non-reducing conditions.

NCBI Gene ID :
