It is encoded by the KIT gene and commonly expressed on the surface of hematopoietic stem cells mast cells melanocytes and germ cells. C-Kit plays a role in the signal transduction pathways that control cell proliferation and survival. Researchers often identify c-Kit using markers like biotin c-Kit PerCP Cy5.5 or antibodies such as anti-c-Kit for experimental purposes.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nC-Kit influences the function and survival of certain cell types. When it binds to its ligand stem cell factor (SCF) it activates receptor dimerization and phosphorylation triggering downstream signaling. C-Kit does not act alone; it often functions in a complex with other proteins to affect cellular outcomes. Its expression is vital for the maintenance of bone marrow hematopoietic cells and contributes to melanocyte and germ cell development.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nC-Kit interacts with the PI3K\/AKT and RAS\/ERK pathways through its kinase activity. These pathways play important roles in cell division differentiation and survival. The c-Abl and ACK2 proteins are closely related to c-Kit function within these signaling networks contributing to regulating cellular responses to external stimuli.\u003cbr\u003e\nC-Kit mutations are frequently associated with gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST) and acute myeloid leukemia (AML). These conditions often involve alterations in c-Kit activity leading to uncontrolled cell growth. While studying GIST researchers have noticed interactions between c-Kit and other proteins like CBL which is involved in the modulation of c-Kit signaling. Understanding these interactions helps in designing targeted therapies for conditions involving c-Kit dysregulation.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46851270475945,"sku":"ab276075","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/abcam-ab276075","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
