01MT11077

Clone REA1071 recognizes the human CD9 antigen, a 25 kDa cell surface glycoprotein which is also known as tetraspanin-29 (Tspan-29). CD9 belongs to the tetraspanin family of integral proteins, which are characterized 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 o
