Recombinant Mouse SCF protein

Recombinant Mouse SCF protein

• Background: Stem Cell Factor (SCF) which binds to the c-Kit receptor is produced by fibroblasts and endothelial cells. The soluble and transmembrane forms of the protein are formed by alternative splicing of the same RNA transcript and the presence of both soluble and transmembrane It is required for normal hematopoietic function and plays an important role in hematopoiesis, spermatogenesis, and melanogenesis. It also promotes mast cell adhesion, migration, proliferation, and survival.
• CAS Number: 9000-83-3
• Reconstitution: Lyophilized from a .2 μm filtered concentrated solution in PBS, pH 7.4.
• Molecular Weight: Approximately 18.4 kDa, a single non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 165 amino acids.
