Macrophage Stimulating 1 (SMT1), also known as Hepatocyte growth factor-like protein (HGFL) and MSP, is a protein that in humans is encoded by the MST1 gene. The HGFL gene was identified at the DNF15S2 locus on human chromosome 3 (3p21). The RON tyrosine kinase), the receptor for MSP, is expressed on the ciliated epithelia of the mucociliary transport apparatus of the lung. Furthermore, MSP stimulated ciliary motility in these cells by activating RON. - See more at: http://www.avivasysbio.com/sd/tds/html_datasheet.php?sku=OKBB00443
