Background

Complement Component 9 (C9) is a 65-70 kDa protein of the complement membrane attack complex (C5b-9) that binds C5b-8, polymerizes, and forms pores upon activation of the complement cascade. Mature human C9 shares 60% and 66% amino acid sequence identity with mouse and rat C9, respectively. It may be proteolytically cleaved by thrombin into a 28-34 kDa cysteine-rich, mannosylated soluble C9a subunit, and a 37-38 kDa membrane-anchored N-glycosylated C9b. These fragments are also able to polymerize.

Limitations

This product is for research use only and is not approved for use in humans or in clinical diagnosis. Primary Antibodies are guaranteed for 1 year from date of receipt.
