General description
The KIT/c-KIT proto-oncogene encodes a type III tyrosine kinase receptor. The KIT gene is located on the human chromosome at 4q12.
Immunogen
Mast/stem cell growth factor receptor precursor recombinant protein epitope signature tag (PrEST)
Application
All Prestige Antibodies Powered by Atlas Antibodies are developed and validated by the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) project and as a result, are supported by the most extensive characterization in the industry.
The Human Protein Atlas project can be subdivided into three efforts: Human Tissue Atlas, Cancer Atlas, and Human Cell Atlas. The antibodies that have been generated in support of the Tissue and Cancer Atlas projects have been tested by immunohistochemistry against hundreds of normal and disease tissues and through the recent efforts of the Human Cell Atlas project, many have been characterized by immunofluorescence to map the human proteome not only at the tissue level but now at the subcellular level. These images and the collection of this vast data set can be viewed on the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) site by clicking on the Image Gallery link. We also provide Prestige Antibodies® protocols and other useful information.

Biochem/physiol Actions
KIT tyrosine kinase receptor is involved in the survival and maintenance of hematopoietic cells, germ cells, and melanocytes. In association with protein tyrosine phosphatase receptor omicron (PTP-RO), KIT plays an important role in the megakaryocytopoiesis. Mutations in the KIT gene are associated with acute myeloid leukemia (AML).
Features and Benefits
Prestige Antibodies® are highly characterized and extensively validated antibodies with the added benefit of all available characterization data for each target being accessible via the Human Protein Atlas portal linked just below the product name at the top of this page. The uniqueness and low cross-reactivity of the Prestige Antibodies® to other proteins are due to a thorough selection of antigen regions, affinity purification, and stringent selection. Prestige antigen controls are available for every corresponding Prestige Antibody and can be found in the linkage section.
Every Prestige Antibody is tested in the following ways:
Every Prestige Antibody is tested in the following ways:
- IHC tissue array of 44 normal human tissues and 20 of the most common cancer type tissues.
- Protein array of 364 human recombinant protein fragments.

Chronic myeloid leukaemia (CML) is characterized by the presence of the BCR-ABL fusion gene, usually in association with the t(9;22)(q34;q11) translocation. We report here the identification and cloning of a rare variant translocation, t(4;22)(q12;q11), in two patients with a CML-like
