KIT Antibody (C-term)
Purified Rabbit Polyclonal Antibody (Pab)

Catalog # Source: Lot # Size:
AP7656b Rabbit SH021107E 0.1 mg
Concentration: Accession: Clone Name: Isotype:
0.25 mg/ml P10721, Q99662 RB1559 Rabbit Ig
Applications: Reactivity: MW (kDa):
WB, IHC, E H, M 109864 Da
Target/Specificity:
This antibody is generated from rabbits immunized with a KLH conjugated synthetic peptide selected from the C-terminal region of human KIT.
Other Names:
Mast/stem cell growth factor receptor; Proto-oncogene tyrosine-protein kinase Kit; SCFR; CD117 antigen
Application Data:

Western blot analysis of anti-KIT Pab (Cat. #AP7656b) in mouse pancreas lysate. KIT (Arrow) was detected using purified Pab. Secondary HRP-anti-rabbit was used for signal visualization with chemiluminescence.

Formalin-fixed and paraffin-embedded human cancer tissue reacted with the primary antibody, which was peroxidase-conjugated to the secondary antibody, followed by AEC staining. This data demonstrates the use of this antibody for immunohistochemistry; clinical relevance has not been evaluated. BC = breast carcinoma; HC = hepatocarcinoma.

Background:
KIT 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. KIT is a type 3 transmembrane receptor for MGF (mast cell growth factor, also known as stem cell factor). Mutations in KIT are associated with gastrointestinal stromal tumors, mast cell disease, acute myelogenous lukemia, and piebaldism.
