Preferred Label : proto-oncogene proteins c-kit;
MeSH definition : A protein-tyrosine kinase receptor that is specific for STEM CELL FACTOR. This interaction
is crucial for the development of hematopoietic, gonadal, and pigment stem cells.
Genetic mutations that disrupt the expression of PROTO-ONCOGENE PROTEINS C-KIT are
associated with PIEBALDISM, while overexpression or constitutive activation of the
c-kit protein-tyrosine kinase is associated with tumorigenesis.;
