Recombinant Canine SCF/c-kit Ligand Protein

This lyophilized preparation is stable for 12 months from date of receipt at -20 to -70 degrees C, preferably desiccated. Upon reconstitution, the preparation can be stored for 1 month at 2-8 degrees C under sterile conditions, and for 3 months at -20 degrees C to -70 degrees C. Use a manual defrost freezer and avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles. Stock solutions should be aliquoted and stored at < -20 degrees C. Further dilutions should be made in appropriate buffered solutions

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 SCF is required for normal hematopoietic function. SCF plays an important role in hematopoiesis, spermatogenesis and melanogenesis and it promotes mast cell adhesion, migration, proliferation, and survival. Soluble canine SCF shares 88 %, 93 %, 86 %, 83 %, 76 %, 76 %, 86 % and 88 % a.a. sequence identity with porcine, feline, bovine, human, mouse, rat, goat and equine SCF, respectively. Cells known to express SCF include endothelial cells, fibroblasts and keratinocytes .

This product is for research use only and is not approved for use in humans or in clinical diagnosis. Peptides and proteins are guaranteed for 3 months from date of receipt.
