Analysis of SCFR/Kit (Human) by MSD Hypersensitive Multi-Factor Electrochemiluminescence Analyzer (CAT#: STEM-MB-0537-LGZ)

Introduction

The proto-oncogene c-KIT is the gene encoding a receptor tyrosine kinase protein known as protein tyrosine kinase KIT, CD117 (cluster of differentiation 117), or mast/stem cell growth factor receptor (SCFR). Multiple transcript variants of this gene have been found, encoding different isoforms. KIT is a cytokine receptor expressed on the surface of hematopoietic stem cells as well as other cell types.
