Stem Cell Factor
also sh-Polypeptide-4, SCF, KIT-ligand, steel factor, mast cell growth factor
Protein crucial for stem cell survival and differentiation
Stem cell factor is a cytokine that binds to the c-KIT receptor (CD117). SCF can exist both as a transmembrane protein and a soluble protein. This cytokine plays an important role in hematopoiesis, spermatogenesis, and melanogenesis.
