描述：

c-Kit的抗体能检测内源c-Kit蛋白的表达水平。本抗体不与其它酪氨酸激酶受体家族的成员发生交叉反应。多克隆抗体通过用多肽免疫动物得到，该多肽是根据人的c-Kit蛋白Met720附近的氨基酸序列合成的。抗体经过protein A和亲和层析纯化。c-Kit是受体酪氨酸激酶亚族的成员之一，这个家族包扩PDGF、 CSF-1和 FLT3/flk-2受体 (1,2)。它在造血干细胞、肥大细胞、黑色素细胞和生殖细胞等多种细胞的活化和生长过程中起重要作用(3)。通过和配体干细胞因子 (SCF)相结合，c-Kit发生二聚化/寡聚化并自磷酸化。激活的c-Kit能够招募下游含SH2信号传到成分，包括PLCγ、PI3K激酶的p85亚基、 SHP2和 CrkL，并使其酪氨酸磷酸化 (4)。导致c-Kit激酶功能减弱的分子损伤往往和各种发育异常相关(5)，而促使c-Kit组成型活化的突变则能导致肥大细胞增多症和胃肠道间质肿瘤(6)。Tyr719位于激酶催化插入区域。Tyr719位点磷酸化的c-Kit 的能够在体内或体外与PI3K激酶的p85亚基结合(7)。

Specificity / Sensitivity

c-Kit Antibody detects endogenous levels of c-Kit. It does not cross-react with other receptor tyrosine kinase family members.

Source / Purification

Polyclonal antibodies are produced by immunizing animals with a synthetic peptide corresponding to the residues surrounding Met720 of human c-Kit. The antibodies are purified by protein A and peptide affinity chromatography.

Background

c-Kit is a member of the subfamily of receptor tyrosine kinases that includes PDGF, CSF-1, and FLT3/flk-2 receptors (1,2). It plays a critical role in activation and growth in a number of cell types including hematopoietic stem cells, mast cells, melanocytes, and germ cells (3). Upon binding with its stem cell factor (SCF) ligand, c-Kit undergoes dimerization/oligomerization and autophosphorylation. Activation of c-Kit results in the recruitment and tyrosine phosphorylation of downstream SH2-containing signaling components including PLCγ, the p85 subunit of PI3 kinase, SHP2, and CrkL (4). Molecular lesions that impair the kinase activity of c-Kit are associated with a variety of developmental disorders (5), and mutations that constitutively activate c-Kit can lead to pathogenesis of mastocytosis and gastrointestinal stromal tumors (6). Tyr719 is located in the kinase insert region of the catalytic domain. c-Kit phosphorylated at Tyr719 binds to the p85 subunit of PI3 kinase in vitro and in vivo (7).
