CD9 also known as motility-related protein-1 (MRP-1) is a transmembrane glycoprotein with a molecular weight of approximately 24 kDa. This protein is part of the tetraspanin family and shows widespread expression throughout different tissues including hematopoietic and non-hematopoietic cells. CD9 participates in numerous cellular processes by interacting with integrins and other cell surface receptors facilitating the organization of molecular complexes within the cell membrane.
Biological function summary
The CD9 protein is integral to cell adhesion migration and fusion. It forms complexes with other tetraspanins and proteins like EWI-2 and EWI-F contributing to cellular signaling and membrane compartmentalization. Additionally CD9 plays an important role in the formation and secretion of exosomes tiny vesicles emitted by cells that mediate cell-to-cell communication. These exosomes can be analyzed using tools like exosome assays and detection kits that target CD9 proteins.
Pathways
CD9 is involved in the regulation of immune response and cell morphology. It participates in pathways such as the integrin signaling pathway and the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) signaling pathway. CD9 modulates these interactions by associating with proteins such as integrins and other members of the tetraspanin family influencing cellular movement and proliferation.
CD9 has connections to various conditions including cancer and infectious diseases. In cancer CD9 can influence tumor progression and metastasis while its altered expression levels have been associated with different cancer types. CD9 interacts with proteins such as integrins and CD81 in these contexts affecting cellular adhesion and migration mechanisms. In infectious diseases CD9 is involved in viral entry processes as some viruses utilize CD9 and its associated tetraspanins for entry into host cells.
