Background

CD117, also known as c-Kit and SCFR, is a transmembrane protein with tyrosine kinase activity encoded by the oncogene c-kit. It is a member of the type III receptor tyrosine kinase family, which also includes CSF-1R, PDGFRβ, PDGFRα, and FLT3. CD117 is expressed on hematopoietic stem cells and progenitor cells, mast cells, and is also found in a wide range of non-haemopoietic cell types (including melanocytes, germ cells, astrocytes, renal tubules, breast glandular epithelial cells, sweat glands, and interstitial cells of Cajal). CD117 plays an important role in early haemopoiesis. It is also involved in pigmentation, fertility, gut movement, and some aspects of the nervous system.
