CD9 / PE / SN4/C3-3A2

Product Details
Description Clone SN4 C3-3A2 recognizes the human CD9 antigen, a 24 kDa cell surface glycoprotein which is also known as tetraspanin-29 (Tspan-29). CD9 belongs to the tetraspanin family of integral proteins, which are characterised by the presence of four conserved transmembrane domains, a small and two large extracellular loops. Expression of CD9 is found on platelets, pre–B cells, fibroblasts, eosinophils, macrophages, basophils, epithelial cells, oocytes, and activated T cells. Further expression is reported on malignant cells and tumor cell lines where CD9 is involved in supressor functions, inhibition of cell invasion, and metastasis. CD9 associates with other tetraspanin members, cell adhesion molecules such as EpCAM, integrin subsets, transmembrane proteins (EWI-2 and EWI-F), choline receptors, and G-proteins. Through diverse interactions or via direct stimulation, CD9 influences various cellular functions including cell adhesion, aggregation, migration, clustering of MHC molecules in dendritic cells (DCs), and provides co-stimulatory signal during T cell activation.

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 PE
Phycoerythrin (PE, R-PE) is a red-emitting fluorescent protein-chromophore complex that can be excited the 488-nm blue, 532-nm green, or 561-nm yellow-green laser with increasing efficiency and captured with a 586/14 nm bandpass filter. PE has an excitation peak at 565 nm and an emission peak at 578 nm. PE is 240kD in size and has an extinction coefficient of ~2x10^6 which makes it one of the brightest fluorophores available and a potent donor upon which to build tandem fluorophores with longer Stoke's Shifts.
