Fibroblast growth factor receptor 2 (FGFR2) is a cell surface receptor belonging to the immunoglobulin superfamily and a transmembrane receptor tyrosine kinase that belongs to the FGFR family. FGFR2 can form ligand-dependent and ligand-independent dimers. The recombinant FGFR2 dimer protein (CSP- 25294-01) is a cis-homodimer (cis-dimer) and contains a FGFR2 extracellular domain (UniProt# G7N1A1, amino acids Arg41-Glu397) fused with a proprietary dimer motif followed by a His tag at the C-terminus. This dimeric protein is expressed in HEK293 cells. The recombinant Rhesus macaque FGFR2 dimer protein is bioactive and can bind to fibroblast growth factor 1 (FGF-1). It also binds FGFR2-specific antibodies. This FGFR2 dimer can be used as an antigen for in vitro assays and antibody screening, and as an immunogen for immunization to generate antibodies targeting more conformational epitopes.

Background
Fibroblast growth factor receptor 2 (FGFR2) is a cell surface receptor belonging to the immunoglobulin superfamily and a transmembrane receptor tyrosine kinase that belongs to the FGFR family. FGFR2 is also known as BBDS, BEK, brefeldin A resistance factor 1 (BFR-1), cluster of differentiation 332 (CD332), CEK3, CFD1, ECT1, JWS, K-SAM, keratinocyte growth factor receptor (KGFR), TK14, and TK25. FGFR2, a Type I transmembrane protein, contains an extracellular domain with three immunoglobulin-like (Ig-like) subdomains (D1, D2 and D3), followed by a transmembrane, and an intracellular domain. Dimerization of FGFRs is necessary for activation and they can homodimerize and heterodimerize in both the presence and absence of ligand. FGFRs bind fibroblast growth factors (FGFs) leading to phosphorylation and triggering signaling cascades. Mutations in FGFR2 cause pathological ligand-independent dimerization, leading to uncontrolled signaling in both developmental disorders and cancers. Mutations in the FGFR2 gene are the cause of several craniosynostosis syndromes and FGFR2 is involved in various forms of cancer including gastric cancer, breast cancer and lung cancer. While structurally and functionally similar to human FGFR2 homodimer, Rhesus macaque FGFR2 homodimer is a species-specific tool essential for preclinical studies, basic research, and translational research.
