c-Kit(Phospho Tyr936) Polyclonal Antibody

This gene encodes the human homolog of the proto-oncogene c-kit. C-kit was first identified as the cellular homolog of the feline sarcoma viral oncogene v-kit. This protein is a type 3 transmembrane receptor for MGF (mast cell growth factor| also known as stem cell factor). Mutations in this gene are associated with gastrointestinal stromal tumors| mast cell disease| acute myelogenous lukemia| and piebaldism. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.
