Rabbit polyclonal to PDGF Receptor alpha ( phospho Y754 )Platelet-derived growth factor receptor (PDGFR) is a transmembrane glycoprotein of 170-185 kDa which undergoes homo- or heterodimerization upon ligand binding. The phosphorylation of tyrosine residues in the activated receptor can control multiple signaling events such as actin reorganization, transcription, cell growth, migration and differentiation, and also lead to activation of the Ras, Raf and ERK 1 and 2 pathway. Phosphorylation of tyrosine 754 is thought to initiate specific signal-transduction pathways distinct from those initiated via homodimeric receptor complexes, as tyrosine 754 has not been shown to be phosphorylated in those complexes. |
