Anti-CD9, clone CDLA9-1

1 mg/ml in 1X PBS, BSA free, sodium azide free. Involved in platelet activation and aggregation. Regulates paranodal junction formation. Involved in cell adhesion, cell motility and tumor metastasis. Required for sperm-egg fusion. [UniProt] Protein function: Integral membrane protein associated with integrins, which regulates different processes, such as sperm-egg fusion, platelet activation and aggregation, and cell adhesion (PubMed:8478605, PubMed:14575715, PubMed:18541721). Present at the cell surface of oocytes and plays a key role in sperm-egg fusion, possibly by organizing multiprotein complexes and the morphology of the membrane required for the fusion. Acts as a receptor for PSG17. Involved in platelet activation and aggregation (PubMed:18541721). Regulates paranodal junction formation. Involved in cell adhesion, cell motility and tumor metastasis (PubMed:8478605, PubMed:7511626). [The UniProt Consortium]
