About CD9
The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the superfamily of ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters. ABC proteins transport various molecules across extra-and intra-cellular membranes. ABC genes are divided into seven distinct subfamilies (ABC1, MDR/TAP, MRP, ALD, OABP, GCN20, White). This full transporter is a member of the MRP subfamily which is involved in multi-drug resistance. This protein functions as a multispecific organic anion transporter, with oxidized glutatione, cysteinyl leukotrienes, and activated aflatoxin B1 as substrates. This protein also transports glucuronides and sulfate conjugates of steroid hormones and bile salts. Alternatively spliced variants of this gene have been described but their full-length nature is unknown. [provided by RefSeq, Apr 2012]

About Brilliant Violet 510
Brilliant™ Violet 510 (BV510) is a green-emitting non-tandem polymer fluorophore that can be excited by the 405 nm Violet laser and collected using a 510/50 bandpass filter. BV510 has an excitation peak at 405 nm and an emission peak at 510 nm, and is similar to StarBright Violet 515 (Bio-Rad). BV510 is most often used in flow cytometry due to its improved signal-to-noise over alternatives like V500 and AmCyan. This dye is part of the Brilliant™ Violet dye line. BV510 and BV480 are the only dyes in the Brilliant™ Violet dye family that are not tandem fluorophores based off the BV421 polymer core, but they have nearly the same maximum excitation.
