- Description
- Predicted to have growth factor binding activity and transmembrane receptor protein tyrosine kinase activity. Involved in embryonic hemopoiesis. Predicted to localize to integral component of plasma membrane and receptor complex. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including acute myeloid leukemia; gastrointestinal stromal tumor; germ cell cancer (multiple); mastocytosis; and piebaldism. Is expressed in several structures, including male organism; mucus secreting cell; nervous system; otic vesicle; and ventral mesoderm. Orthologous to human KIT (KIT proto-oncogene, receptor tyrosine kinase).
