| Host | Rat |
| Specificity | Specifically recognizes mouse CD140a, the alpha chain of PDGF receptor. A receptor tyrosine kinase, PDGFRa forms dimers on the surface upon ligand binding and phosphorylates substrates. CD140a is expressed by embryonic tissues and mesenchymal-derived cells of the adult mouse tissues. |

| Entrez Gene Number |
|
| Entrez Gene Summary | This gene encodes a cell surface tyrosine kinase receptor for members of the platelet-derived growth factor family. These growth factors are mitogens for cells of mesenchymal origin. The identity of the growth factor bound to a receptor monomer determines whether the functional receptor is a homodimer or a heterodimer, composed of both platelet-derived growth factor receptor alpha and beta polypeptides. Studies in knockout mice, where homozygosity is lethal, indicate that the alpha form of the platelet-derived growth factor receptor is particularly important for kidney development since mice heterozygous for the receptor exhibit defective kidney phenotypes. |

| UniProt Summary | FUNCTION: SwissProt: P16234 # Receptor that binds both PDGFA and PDGFB and has a tyrosine-protein kinase activity. SIZE: 1089 amino acids; 122670 Da SUBUNIT: Homodimer, and heterodimer with PDGFRB. Interacts with SHB (By similarity). SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein. DISEASE: SwissProt: P16234 # A fusion of PDGFRA and FIP1L1 (FIP1L1-PDGFRA), due to an interstitial chromosomal deletion, is the cause of some cases of hypereosinophilic syndrome (HES) [MIM:607685]. HES is a rare hematologic disorder characterized by sustained overproduction of eosinophils in the bone marrow, eosinophilia, tissue infiltration and organ damage. SIMILARITY: SwissProt: P16234 ## Belongs to the protein kinase superfamily. Tyr protein kinase family. CSF-1/PDGF receptor subfamily. & Contains 5 Ig-like C2-type (immunoglobulin-like) domains. & Contains 1 protein kinase domain. |
