General description
Anti-C-KIT Antibody detects endogenous levels of total C-KIT protein.
KIT (proto-oncogene) is a type III receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK). It codes for a tyrosine kinase receptor (CD117). It is located on human chromosome 4q12.
The KIT (proto-oncogene receptor tyrosine kinase) gene is mapped to human chromosome 4q12. It encodes for a transmembrane glycoprotein that belongs to the receptor tyrosine kinases subclass III family.
Immunogen
The antiserum was produced against synthesized peptide derived from human c-Kit.
Immunogen Range: 688-737
Biochem/physiol Actions
KIT (proto-oncogene receptor tyrosine kinase) is considered to be an important hematopoietic growth factor receptor. It is known to exhibit tyrosine kinase activity that is associated with a variety of biologic processes, such as cell proliferation, survival, apoptosis, and motility. Downregulation of this gene is observed during the disease progression of multiple myeloma. Variation in the gene contributes to at least 2% of all melanomas and is most frequently observed in acral and mucosal melanomas. Mutations in KIT is associated with gastrointestinal stromal tumors.
KIT (proto-oncogene) participates in cell signal transduction. It also participates in the progression of hematopoietic stem cells, melanocytes, germ cells, mast cells and interstitial cells of Cajal. Mutations in KIT gene results in gastrointestinal stromal tumors.
