Mouse Anti-Chicken c-Kit-FITC

Chicken c-Kit<br>c-Kit is a 145 kDa transmembrane receptor-type protein tyrosine kinase encoded by the c-Kit protooncogene and is the receptor for stem cell factor (SCF). 1 c-Kit acts to regulate a variety of biological responses including cell proliferation, apoptosis, chemotaxis and adhesion. 2, 3, 4, 5 The amino acid sequence of chicken c-kit shows 63% identity to mouse c-Kit and exhibits similar expression patterns in RNA blot analysis suggesting similar biological roles.1
