Recombinant Human FLT3, GST-tagged

• Cat.No.: FLT3-12937H
• Product Overview: Recombinant Human FLT3 protein, fused to GST-tag, was expressed in E.coli and purified by GSH-sepharose.

Specification

• Description: This gene encodes a class III receptor tyrosine kinase that regulates hematopoiesis. The receptor consists of an extracellular domain composed of five immunoglobulin-like domains, one transmembrane region, and a cytoplasmic kinase domain split into two parts by a kinase-insert domain. The receptor is activated by binding of the fms-related tyrosine kinase 3 ligand to the extracellular domain, which induces homodimer formation in the plasma membrane leading to autophosphorylation of the receptor. The activated receptor kinase subsequently phosphorylates and activates multiple cytoplasmic effector molecules in pathways involved in apoptosis, proliferation, and differentiation of hematopoietic cells in bone marrow. Mutations that result in the constitutive activation of this receptor result in acute myeloid leukemia and acute lymphoblastic leukemia.

Q&As

How is FLT3 implicated in acute myeloid leukemia (AML)?

FLT3 is frequently mutated in AML, contributing to uncontrolled cell growth and poor prognosis.

In which cells or tissues is FLT3 predominantly expressed?

FLT3 is predominantly expressed in hematopoietic stem cells and progenitor cells.

How does FLT3 contribute to hematopoiesis?

It is essential for hematopoiesis, particularly in the proliferation of early progenitor cells.

Are there therapeutic strategies targeting FLT3 for disease treatment?

Therapeutic strategies include FLT3 inhibitors, showing effectiveness in treating AML patients with FLT3 mutations.

What is the primary biological function of FLT3 in cells?

FLT3 is a receptor tyrosine kinase that plays a crucial role in cell survival, proliferation, and differentiation.

What role does FLT3 play in the proliferation and differentiation of hematopoietic stem cells?

It stimulates the proliferation and differentiation of hematopoietic stem cells, guiding their development into various blood cell types.

What are the common mutations found in FLT3 associated with diseases?

Common mutations include internal tandem duplications (ITD) and tyrosine kinase domain (TKD) mutations, leading to constitutive activation of FLT3.
