CD117, a 145kD Type III transmembrane Tyrosine Kinase receptor, is a novel member of Ig superfamily. It is a Human homolog of proto-oncogene c-Kit and is expressed in tissue mast cells and hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells. It consists of an extracellular domain with Ig-like repeats and a Tyrosine Kinase domain, a putative transmembrane region and a cytoplasmic domain. CD117 functions as receptor for MGF/SCF resulting in maturation of hemopoietic and primordial germ cell precursors and melanocytes during embryonic development. CD117 gets autophosphorylated and activates signaling pathways including PI3K/Akt, MAPK and JNK affecting multiple cellular functions including cell survival, proliferation, adhesion and differentiation. Mutations in KIT are associated with gastrointestinal stromal tumors, mast cell disease, acute myelogenous leukemia and piebaldism. Applications: Suitable for use in Immunohistochemistry. Other applications not tested. Recommended Dilution: Immunohistochemistry (paraffin): 1:50-1:100 Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher. Positive Control: Tonsil Cellular Localization: Cytoplasmic and cell membrane Storage and Stability: May be stored at 4 degrees C for short-term only. Aliquot to avoid repeated freezing and thawing.
