Description
Product Characteristics: For the quantitative determination of human proto-oncogene tyrosine-protein kinase src (SRC) concentrations in serum, plasma, tissue homogenates, cell lysates.
Target Information: This gene is highly similar to the v-src gene of Rous sarcoma virus. This proto-oncogene may play a role in the regulation of embryonic development and cell growth. The protein encoded by this gene is a tyrosine-protein kinase whose activity can be inhibited by phosphorylation by c-SRC kinase. Mutations in this gene could be involved in the malignant progression of colon cancer. Two transcript variants encoding the same protein have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
