GMP SCF Protein, Human (HEK293, His)

Cat. No.: HY-P70757G
COA Handling Instructions

SCF proteins are ligands for the KIT receptor-type protein tyrosine kinase and regulate a variety of cellular processes, including survival, proliferation, hematopoiesis, stem cell maintenance, gametogenesis, mast cell development, migration, and melanogenesis. Binding to KIT activates signaling pathways involving PIK3R1, AKT1, GRB2, RAS, RAF1, MAP kinase, STAT family members, and PLCG1, producing diacylglycerol and inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate. GMP SCF Protein, Human (HEK293, His) is the recombinant human-derived SCF protein, expressed by HEK293 , with C-6*His labeled tag.

GMP-grade recombinant proteins are produced under independent QA supervision, as well as quality records and full traceability.

Description

SCF proteins are ligands for the KIT receptor-type protein tyrosine kinase and regulate a variety of cellular processes, including survival, proliferation, hematopoiesis, stem cell maintenance, gametogenesis, mast cell development, migration, and melanogenesis. Binding to KIT activates signaling pathways involving PIK3R1, AKT1, GRB2, RAS, RAF1, MAP kinase, STAT family members, and PLCG1, producing diacylglycerol and inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate. GMP SCF Protein, Human (HEK293, His) is the recombinant human-derived SCF protein, expressed by HEK293 , with C-6*His labeled tag.

Background

The GMP stem cell factor (SCF) protein serves as a ligand for the receptor-type protein-tyrosine kinase KIT, playing a pivotal role in the regulation of diverse cellular processes. Its functions span the control of cell survival and proliferation, hematopoiesis, stem cell maintenance, gametogenesis, mast cell development, migration, and melanogenesis. Upon binding with KIT, GMP SCF activates multiple signaling pathways, including the phosphorylation of PIK3R1 and subsequent activation of the kinase AKT1. The interaction also triggers signaling cascades involving GRB2, RAS, RAF1, and the MAP kinases MAPK1/ERK2 and/or MAPK3/ERK1. Furthermore, GMP SCF and KIT promote the activation of STAT family members (STAT1, STAT3, and STAT5), as well as PLCG1, leading to the production of the cellular signaling molecules diacylglycerol and inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate. Acting synergistically with other cytokines, likely interleukins, GMP SCF forms a homodimer non-covalently linked and a heterotetramer with KIT, facilitating KIT dimerization and subsequent activation through autophosphorylation.

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.

  • Specific Activity Calculator

The reconstitution calculator equation

Volume (to add to vial) = Mass (in vial) ÷ Desired Reconstitution Concentration

Volume (to add to vial) = Mass (in vial) ÷ Desired Reconstitution Concentration
= ÷

The dilution calculator equation

Concentration (start) × Volume (start) = Concentration (final) × Volume (final)

This equation is commonly abbreviated as: C1V1 = C2V2

Concentration (start) × Volume (start) = Concentration (final) × Volume (final)
× = ×

The specific activity calculator equation

Specific Activity (Unit/mg) = 106 ÷ Biological Activity (ED50)

Specific Activity (Unit/mg) = 106 ÷ Biological Activity (ED50)
Unit/mg = 106 ÷ ng/mL
