The cloning and sequencing of cDNAs encoding two isoforms of feline stem cell factor.
cDNA clones encoding two isoforms of feline stem cell factor (fSCF) have been isolated using RT-PCR and their sequences determined. The cDNAs encode a predicted full length fSCF protein of 274 amino-acids and a shorter isoform of 246 amino acids. Feline SCF shows a high degree of homology to the SCFs of other species at both the nucleic acid and protein level.
