Background | The c-kit proto-oncogene encodes a transmembrane receptor with tyrosine kinase activity, c-kit (CD117) , which is closely-related to the platelet-derived growth factor receptor family. c-kit plays a role during hematopoiesis, gametogenesis and melanogenesis. The expression of CD117 antigen is of particular interest in the study of gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST) , small lung cell carcinomas and in melanomas. |
