{"product_id":"cst-73765sf","title":"CST,  73765SF, CD9 (D3H4P) Rabbit Monoclonal Antibody (BSA and Azide Free)","description":"Monoclonal Antibody for studying CD9. Validated for Western Blotting,Immunohistochemistry (Paraffin). Highly specific and rigorously validated in-house, CD9 (D3H4P) Rabbit Monoclonal Antibody (BSA and Azide Free) (CST #73765) is ready to ship.\n\n\u003cb\u003eProduct Usage Information\u003c\/b\u003e\nThis product is the carrier free version of product #13403. All data were generated using the same antibody clone in the standard formulation which contains BSA and glycerol. This formulation is ideal for use with technologies requiring specialized or custom antibody labeling, including fluorophores, metals, lanthanides, and oligonucleotides. It is not recommended for ChIP, ChIP-seq, CUT\u0026amp;RUN or CUT\u0026amp;Tag assays. If you require a carrier free formulation for chromatin profiling, please contact us . Optimal dilutions\/concentrations should be determined by the end user. BSA and Azide Free antibodies are quality control tested by size exclusion chromatography (SEC) to determine antibody integrity.\n\u003cb\u003eFormulation\u003c\/b\u003e\nSupplied in 1X PBS (10 mM Na 2 HPO 4 , 3 mM KCl, 2 mM KH 2 PO 4 , and 140 mM NaCl (pH 7.8)). BSA and Azide Free. For standard formulation of this product see product # 13403 .\n\u003cb\u003eStorage\u003c\/b\u003e\nStore at -20°C. This product will freeze at -20°C so it is recommended to aliquot into single-use vials to avoid multiple freeze\/thaw cycles. A slight precipitate may be present and can be dissolved by gently vortexing. This will not interfere with antibody performance.\n\u003cb\u003eSpecificity \/ Sensitivity\u003c\/b\u003e\nCD9 (D3H4P) Rabbit Monoclonal Antibody (BSA and Azide Free) recognizes endogenous levels of total CD9 protein.\nSpecies Reactivity: Human\n\u003cb\u003eSource \/ Purification\u003c\/b\u003e\nMonoclonal antibody is produced by immunizing animals with a synthetic peptide corresponding to residues surrounding Val178 of human CD9 protein.\n\u003cb\u003eBackground\u003c\/b\u003e\nThe CD9 antigen belongs to the tetraspanin family of cell surface glycoproteins, and is characterized by four transmembrane domains, one short extracellular domain (ECL1), and one long extracellular domain (ECL2). Tetraspanins interact with a variety of cell surface proteins and intracellular signaling molecules in specialized tetraspanin-enriched microdomains (TEMs), where they mediate a range of processes including adhesion, motility, membrane organization, and signal transduction (1). Research studies demonstrate that CD9 expression on the egg is required for gamete fusion during fertilization (2-4). CD9 was also shown to play a role in dendritic cell migration, megakaryocyte differentiation, and homing of cord blood CD34+ hematopoietic progenitors to the bone marrow (5-7). In addition, downregulation of CD9 expression is associated with poor prognosis and progression of several types of cancer (8-10). Additional research identified CD9 as an abundant component of exosomes, and may play some role in the fusion of these secreted membrane vesicles with recipient cells (11).\n\u003cb\u003eAlternate Names\u003c\/b\u003e\n5H9 antigen; antigen CD9; BA-2\/p24 antigen; BTCC-1; CD9; CD9 antigen; CD9 antigen (p24); CD9 molecule; Cell growth-inhibiting gene 2 protein; DRAP-27; Leukocyte antigen MIC3; MIC3; motility related protein-1; Motility-related protein; MRP-1; p24; Tetraspanin-29; Tspan-29; TSPAN29\n\n\u003cb\u003eSpecification\u003c\/b\u003e\n\nREACTIVITY: H\nSENSITIVITY: Endogenous\nMW (kDa): 22, 24, 35\nSource\/Isotype: Rabbit IgG","brand":"CST","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46799884255401,"sku":"73765SF","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/cst-73765sf","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
