The Rabbit Polyclonal anti-KIT antibody (ABIN362901) specifically detects KIT in WB.
The antibody is reactive with Human, Mouse and Rat samples.
The antibody detects endogenous level of total c-Kit protein.
Purification
The antibody was affinity-purified from rabbit antiserum by affinity-chromatography using epitope-specific immunogen.
Immunogen
Peptide sequence around AA 719-723 (N-E-Y-M-D) derived from Human c-Kit. Antibodies were produced by immunizing rabbits with synthetic peptide and KLH conjugates.

Target
KIT
(Mast/stem Cell Growth Factor Receptor (KIT))
Alternative Name
c-Kit
Background
This is the receptor for stem cell factor (mast cell growth factor). It has a tyrosine-protein kinase activity. Binding of the ligands leads to the autophosphorylation of KIT and its association with substrates such as phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (Pi3K)
