Anti-c-Met [12.1]
Invented by Dr Julin Wong at University of Dundee
Catalogue Number | 152665 |
Applications | FACS IF IP WB |
Antigen/Gene or Protein Targets | c-Met, cMet |
Reactivity | Human |
Relevance | c-Met is a tyrosine receptor kinase which is activated by its ligand, the hepatocyte growth factor. Activation of c-Met leads to a wide spectrum of biological activities such as motility, angiogenesis, morphogenesis, cell survival and cell regeneration. c-Met is abnormally activated in many tumour types. Aberrant c-Met activation was found to induce tumour development, tumour cell migration and invasion, and the worst and final step in cancer progression, metastasis. |
