M-CSF R/CD115, the product of the c-fms proto-oncogene, is a member of the type III subfamily of receptor tyrosine kinases that also includes c-kit, the receptor for SCF, and the alpha and beta receptors for PDGF. M-CSF R/CD115 is expressed primarily on cells of the monocyte/macrophage lineage and in various tissues of the developing placenta.
