*The optimal dilutions should be determined by the end user. For optimal experimental results, antibody reuse is not recommended.
*Tips:
WB: For western blot detection of denatured protein samples. IHC: For immunohistochemical detection of paraffin sections (IHC-p) or frozen sections (IHC-f) of tissue samples. IF/ICC: For immunofluorescence detection of cell samples. ELISA(peptide): For ELISA detection of antigenic peptide.

Research Backgrounds
Constituent of the membrane attack complex (MAC) that plays a key role in the innate and adaptive immune response by forming pores in the plasma membrane of target cells. C9 is the pore-forming subunit of the MAC.
Thrombin cleaves factor C9 to produce C9a and C9b.
Phosphorylation sites are present in the extracellular medium.
Initially, positions and connectivity of disulfide bonds were based on peptide sequencing done for the human protein. The crystal structures for the human and mouse proteins corrected the positions and connectivities of the disulfide bonds. The distance between Cys-57 and Cys-94 in the monomeric mouse protein precludes formation of a disulfide bond, contrary to what is seen in the structure of the human polymeric form of the protein (Probable).
Secreted. Target cell membrane>Multi-pass membrane protein.
Note: Secreted as soluble monomer. Oligomerizes at target membranes, forming a pre-pore. A conformation change then leads to the formation of a 100 Angstrom diameter pore.
Plasma (at protein level).
Belongs to the complement C6/C7/C8/C9 family.
