Anti-Tie2/TEK Antibody, clone Ab33

TIE2 (tyrosine kinase with Ig and EGF homology domains 2) is expressed almost exclusively in endothelial cells in mice, rats and humans. This receptor possesses a unique extracellular domain containing two immunoglobulin-like loops separated by three epidermal growth factor-like repeats that are connected to three fibronectin type III-like repeats. The ligand for the receptor is Angiopoietin 1. Defects in TIE2 are associated with inherited venous malformations; the TIE2 signaling pathway appears to be critical for endothelial cell-smooth muscle cell communication in venous morphogenesis.
