Anti-mouse CD117 monoclonal antibody recognizes the receptor tyrosine kinase, c-kit. The ligand for this receptor is steel factor (stem cell factor), which exists in both soluble and membrane form. The interaction between steel factor and c-kit is essential for the development of hematopoietic, gonadal and pigment stem cells. c- kit positive cells are a subset of CD34+ hematopoietic precursor cells and it is expressed on 5-10% of total adult bone marrow cells. This product is suitable for use in flow cytometry, and has been reported to work in immunohistochemistry (frozen and polyester wax sections).
