Synonyms: CD135, FLK2, STK1

Family: TK

FLT3 is a receptor tyrosine kinase, which plays important role in the normal development of stem cells and the immune system. Mutations of FLT3 have been detected in about 30% of patients with acute myelogenous leukemia and a small number of patients with acute lymphocytic leukemia or myelodysplastic syndrome1.

FLT3 kinase assay is run on mobility shift microfluidics platform (Caliper), which provides best in industry quality of data. We routinely run services associated with this kinase including: screening, profiling, dose-response studies and kinetic measurements. Please contact us for more information.
