Protein Description	Recombinant Human Stem Cell Factor (SCF) His-tag. Soluble Stem Cell Factor (SCF), a 18.4kDa protein consisting of 165 amino acid residues (Glu26-Ala190) and fused to a C-terminal His-tag (6x His).
Storage	Store lyophilized at 2-8°C for 6 months or at -20°C long term. After reconstitution store the antibody undiluted at 2-8°C for one month or (in aliquots) at -20°C long term. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing.
Stability	Shelf life: one year from despatch.
Bioactivity	Biological: Measured in a cell proliferation assay using TF 1 human erythroleukemic cells [Kitamura T et al, J Cell Physiol, 1989]. The ED50 for this effect is typically 1‑5 ng/ml.
Endotoxin	< 0.1 ng per µg of SCF

Summary	This gene encodes the ligand of the tyrosine-kinase receptor encoded by the KIT locus. This ligand is a pleiotropic factor that acts in utero in germ cell and neural cell development, and hematopoiesis, all believed to reflect a role in cell migration. In adults, it functions pleiotropically, while mostly noted for its continued requirement in hematopoiesis. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.
