Anti-c-Kit/CD117, clone 1L19 ZooMAb^®, Cat. No. ZRB1284, is a recombinant Rabbit monoclonal antibody that specifically targets v-Kit/CD117 and is tested for use in Affinity Binding Assay, Flow Cytometry, Immunocytochemistry, and Western Blotting.

Mast/stem cell growth factor receptor Kit (UniProt: P10721; also known as EC: 2.7.10.1, SCFR, Piebald trait protein, PBT, Proto-oncogene c-Kit, Tyrosine-protein kinase Kit, p145 c-kit, v-kit Hardy-Zuckerman 4 feline sarcoma viral oncogene homolog) is encoded by the KIT (also known as SCFR) gene (Gene ID: 3815) in human. c-Kit is a single-pass type I membrane glycoprotein that is synthesized with a signal peptide (aa 1-25), which is subsequently cleaved off to generate the mature form that contains an extracellular domain (aa 26-524), a transmembrane domain (aa 525-545), and a cytoplasmic domain (aa 546-976). c-Kit has tyrosine protein kinase activity and serves as a cell-surface receptor for the stem cell factor (SCF)/KITLG. It plays a significant role in the regulation of cell survival, cell proliferation, stem cell maintenance, gametogenesis and other functions. In response to SCF binding, c-Kit can activate several signaling pathways. In the absence of bound stem cell factor (SCF), it exists as a monomer, however, it homodimerizes in the presence of bound SCF and forms a heterotetramer with two SCF molecules. c-Kit can be autophosphorylated on tyrosine residues and SCF binding enhances its autophosphorylation. Its kinase activity is reported to be down-regulated by phosphorylation on serine residues by protein kinase C family members. Phosphorylation at tyrosine 568 is shown to be essential for its interaction with PTPN11/SHP-2, CRK (isoform Crk-II) and members of the Src tyrosine-protein kinase family and phosphorylation at tyrosine 570 is required for interaction with PTPN6/SHP-1. c-Kit can be ubiquitinated by SOCS6 and it is rapidly ubiquitinated after autophosphorylation induced by SCF binding, leading to its internalization and degradation. Lack of c-Kit expression has been reported in multiple cancer types and c-Kit expressing cells display a regression of typical morphological features of malignancy. This ZooMAb^® recombinant monoclonal antibody, generated by our propriety technology, offers significantly enhanced specificity, affinity, reproducibility, and stability over conventional monoclonals.

Purified recombinant rabbit monoclonal antibody IgG, lyophilized in PBS with 5% Trehalose, normal appearance a coarse or translucent resin. The PBS/trehalose components in the ZooMAb^® formulation can have the appearance of a semi-solid (bead like gel) after lyophilization. This is a normal phenomenon. Please follow the recommended reconstitution procedure in the data sheet to dissolve the semi-solid, bead-like, gel-appearing material. The resulting antibody solution is completely stable and functional as proven by full functional testing. Contains no biocide or preservatives, such as azide, or any animal by-products. Larger pack sizes provided as multiples of 25 μL.

300 μg/mL after reconstitution at 25 μL per vial. Please refer to guidance on suggested starting dilutions and/or titers per application and sample type.

Recommend storage of lyophilized product at 2-8°C; Before reconstitution, micro-centrifuge vials briefly to spin down material to bottom of the vial; Reconstitute each vial by adding 25 μL of filtered lab grade water or PBS; Reconstituted antibodies can be stored at 2-8°C, or -20°C for long term storage. Avoid repeated freeze-thaws.
