Product Details anti-TEK Antibody

Target: TEK (TEK Tyrosine Kinase, Endothelial (TEK))

Reactivity: Human

Host: Mouse

Clonality: Monoclonal

Conjugate: This TEK antibody is un-conjugated

Application: Western Blotting (WB), ELISA, Flow Cytometry (FACS)

Purpose: TIE-2 antibody

Specificity: Human soluble extracellular TIE-2

Cross-Reactivity (Details): The monoclonal antibody will detect native human TIE-2/tek in ELISA experiments and on the surface of different human cell types. The antibody can be used for ELISA experiments, Western blotting, FACS and cell sorting.

Characteristics: Chromosomal location: 9p21
The monoclonal antibody was produced with the help of BALB/c mice using recombinant human soluble extracellular TIE-2 as the immunizing antigen. The unconjugated antibody will detect native human TIE-2/tek in ELISA experiments and on the surface of different human cell types.

Purification: Mouse IgG1 antibody (#tek2) from hybridomas was purified from cell culture supernatant by Protein G chromatography.

Immunogen: Human soluble extracellular TIE-2

Clone: Tek2

Isotype: IgG1

Target Details for TEK

Target: TEK (TEK Tyrosine Kinase, Endothelial (TEK))

Alternative Name: TIE-2 (TEK Products)

Background: TEK, TIE2, VMCM, TIE-2, VMCM1, CD202B,Tie-1/Tie and Tie-2/Tek are receptor tyrosine kinases with unique structural characteristics including two immunoglobulin-like domains flanking three epidermal growth factor (EGF)-like domains, followed by three fibronectin type III-like repeats in the extracellular region, and a split tyrosine kinase domain in the cytoplasmic region. Tie-2 is involved in vascular stabilization and remodeling. Although less well understood, Tie-1 may also act as an ANG receptor, possibly in complex with Tie-2. Human Tie-2 cDNA encodes a 1124 amino acid (aa) residue precursor protein with an 18 residue putative signal peptide, a 727 residue extracellular domain and a 354 residue cytoplasmic domain. Tie-2 is a receptor for the angiopoietin (ANG) family: ANG-1, ANG-2, and ANG-3 (mouse)/-4 (human). Ang-2 has been reported to act as an antagonist for Ang-1. Mice engineered to overexpress Ang-2 or to lack Ang-1 or Tie-2 display similar angiogenesis defects.
