Introduction | Fibroblast growth factors (FGFs) produce mitogenic and angiogenic effects in target cells by signaling through cell surface receptor tyrosine kinases. There are four members of the FGF receptor family: FGFR1 (flg), FGFR2 (bek, KGFR), FGFR3, and FGFR4. Each receptor contains an extracellular ligand binding domain, a transmembrane domain, and a cytoplasmic kinase domain. Following ligand binding and dimerization, the receptors are phosphorylated at specific tyrosine residues. Seven tyrosine residues in the cytoplasmic tail of FGFR1 can be phosphorylated: Tyr463, 583, 585, 653, 654, 730, and 766. Tyr653 and Tyr654 are important for catalytic activity of activated FGFR and are essential for signaling. The other phosphorylated tyrosine residues may provide docking sites for downstream signaling components such as Crk and PLCγ.Activating mutations within fibroblast growth factor receptor 3 (FGFR-3) are responsible for human skeletal dysplasias including achondroplasia and the neonatal lethal syndromes thanatophoric dysplasia types I and II. Several of these same FGFR-3 mutations as well as overexpression of FGFR-3 proteins have also been identified somatically in human cancers, including multiple myeloma, bladder carcinoma and cervical cancer. Thus, FGFR-3 may represent a potential target for therapy. |

Specificity | Detects human FGF R3 (IIIb) in direct ELISAs. In direct ELISAs, approximately 25‑50% cross-reactivity with recombinant mouse FGF R3 (IIIb) is observed and 12% with recombinant human (rh) FGF R4 is observed and no cross-reactivity with (IIIc) isoforms of rhFGF R3 or any isoforms of rhFGF R1 or rhFGF R2 is observed. |
