Product Description
Recombinant Rat SCF (C-6His) is an ELK Biotechnology recombinant protein for research use.
Description
Recombinant Rat Kit Ligand is produced by our Mammalian expression system and the target gene encoding Gln26-Ala189 is expressed with a 6His tag at the C-terminus.
Background
SCF/C-kit ligand is the ligand of the tyrosine-kinase receptor encoded by the KIT locus. Plays an essential role in the regulation of cell survival and proliferation, hematopoiesis, stem cell maintenance, gametogenesis, mast cell development, migration and function, and in melanogenesis. KITLG/SCF binding can activate several signaling pathways. Promotes phosphorylation of PIK3R1, the regulatory subunit of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase, and subsequent activation of the kinase AKT1. In phase I/II clinical studies administration of the combination of SCF and G-CSF resulted in a two- to threefold increase in cells that express the CD34 antigen compared with G-CSF alone.
