Anti-CD117 (c-kit, Stem Cell Factor, SCF, Receptor, Steel Factor Receptor, Mast Cell Growth Factor,

CD117 cell surface antigen is a 145kD glycoprotein also known as c-kit. CD117 is expressed by some haematopoietic stem cells (~70% of CD34+ve cells in normal bone marrow are CD117+ve), some acute myeloid leukaemias and by mast cells. Functionally CD117 is a receptor for stem cell factor, and has receptor tyrosine kinase activity. , Applications: , Suitable for use in Flow Cytometry. Other applications not tested.
