Anti-KIT Antibody detects endogenous levels of total KIT protein.
KIT (proto-oncogene) is a type III receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK). It codes for a tyrosine kinase receptor (CD117). It is located on human chromosome 4q12.
Immunogen
The antiserum was produced against synthesized peptide derived from human KIT.
Immunogen Range: 906-955
Biochem/physiol Actions
KIT (proto-oncogene) participates in cell signal transduction. It also participates in the progression of hematopoietic stem cells, melanocytes, germ cells, mast cells and interstitial cells of Cajal. Mutations in KIT gene results in gastrointestinal stromal tumors.

Gain-of-function mutations and overexpression of KIT are characteristic features of gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST). Dysregulation in miRNA expression may lead to KIT overexpression and tumorigenesis. miRNA microarray analysis and real-time PCR were used to determine the miRNA expression profiles in
