CC -!- FUNCTION: Ligand for the receptor-type protein-tyrosine kinase KIT.
CC Plays an essential role in the regulation of cell survival and
CC proliferation, hematopoiesis, stem cell maintenance, gametogenesis,
CC mast cell development, migration and function, and in melanogenesis.
CC KITLG/SCF binding can activate several signaling pathways. Promotes
CC phosphorylation of PIK3R1, the regulatory subunit of
CC phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase, and subsequent activation of the kinase
CC AKT1. KITLG/SCF and KIT also transmit signals via GRB2 and activation
CC of RAS, RAF1 and the MAP kinases MAPK1/ERK2 and/or MAPK3/ERK1.
CC KITLG/SCF and KIT promote activation of STAT family members STAT1,
CC STAT3 and STAT5. KITLG/SCF and KIT promote activation of PLCG1, leading
CC to the production of the cellular signaling molecules diacylglycerol
CC and inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate. KITLG/SCF acts synergistically with
CC other cytokines, probably interleukins (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.
CC -!- SUBUNIT: Homodimer, non-covalently linked (Probable). Heterotetramer
CC with KIT, binding two KIT molecules; thereby mediates KIT dimerization
CC and subsequent activation by autophosphorylation (By similarity).
CC {ECO:0000250, ECO:0000305}.
CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cytoplasm {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P21583}.
CC Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton {ECO:0000250}. Cell membrane
CC {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P21583}; Single-pass type I membrane protein
CC {ECO:0000250}. Cell projection, lamellipodium
CC {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P21583}. Cell projection, filopodium
CC {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P21583}.
CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: [Soluble KIT ligand]: Secreted {ECO:0000250}.
CC -!- PTM: A soluble form is produced by proteolytic processing of the
CC extracellular domain. {ECO:0000250}.
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the SCF family. {ECO:0000305}.
