Canine/Feline SCF/c-kit Ligand Antibody Summary

Species Reactivity

Canine, Feline

Specificity

Detects canine and feline SCF/c‑kit Ligand in direct ELISAs and Western blots. In direct ELISAs and Western blots, 50%‑100% cross‑reactivity with recombinant human (rh) SCF and recombinant mouse SCF is observed and no cross-reactivity with rhM-CSF is observed.

Background: SCF/c-kit Ligand

SCF, also known as c-kit ligand, is a 28 kDa‑40 kDa type I transmembrane (TM) glycoprotein that plays important roles in fetal and adult developmental processes. Endothelial cells, fibroblasts, and keratinocytes can express SCF. The 190 aa extracellular region contains a proteolytic cleavage site, generating 165 aa circulating monomers and noncovalent homodimers. Soluble feline and canine SCF share 93% aa identity with each other and 88%‑92% aa identity with pig, cow, sheep, goat, horse, and mink SCF.
