摘要:
The invention discloses a newly discovered Flt3 phosphorylation site, tyrosine 969 (Tyr969) in the intracellular domain, and provides reagents, including polyclonal and monoclonal antibodies, that selectively bind to Flt3 when phosphorylated at this site. Also provided are assays utilizing this reagent, including methods for determining the phosphorylation of Flt3 in a biological sample, selecting a patient suitable for Flt3 inhibitor therapy, profiling Flt3 activation in a test tissue, and identifying a compound that modulates phosphorylation of Flt3 in a test tissue, by using a detectable reagent, such as the disclosed antibody, that binds to Flt3 only when phosphorylated at Tyr969. The sample or test tissue may be taken from a subject suspected of having cancer, such as acute myelogenous leukemia (AML).
