About Kit

Chromosome 5: 75,735,576-75,817,382 forward strand.GRCm39:CM000998.3

This gene has 8 transcripts (splice variants), 206 orthologues, 53 paralogues and is associated with 222 phenotypes. Broad expression in lung adult (RPKM 39.), cerebellum adult (RPKM 19.6) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

The c-Kit proto-oncogene is the cellular homolog of the transforming gene of a feline retrovirus (v-Kit). The c-Kit protein includes characteristics of a protein kinase transmembrane receptor. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
