Immobilized Recombinant Human Complement Component C9 Protein (rp188480) at 1.0 μg/mL can bind Recombinant C9 Antibody (Ab092295) with the EC50 of 6.2 ng/mL.
Pore-forming component of the membrane attack complex (MAC), a multiprotein complex activated by the complement cascade, which inserts into a target cell membrane and forms a pore, leading to target cell membrane rupture and cell lysis (PubMed:22832194, PubMed:26841837, PubMed:26841934, PubMed:27052168, PubMed:30552328, PubMed:6177822, PubMed:9212048, PubMed:9634479). The MAC is initiated by proteolytic cleavage of C5 into complement C5b in response to the classical, alternative, lectin and GZMK complement pathways (PubMed:9212048, PubMed:9634479). The complement pathways consist in a cascade of proteins that leads to phagocytosis and breakdown of pathogens and signaling that strengthens the adaptive immune system (PubMed:9212048, PubMed:9634479). Constitutes the pore-forming subunit of the MAC complex: during MAC assembly, C9 associates with the C5b8 intermediate complex, and polymerizes to complete the pore (PubMed:26841934, PubMed:30111885, PubMed:30552328, PubMed:34752492, PubMed:4055801, PubMed:6177822). Membrane attack complex (MAC) assembly is inhibited by CD59, thereby protecting self-cells from damage during complement activation (PubMed:36797260). CD59 acts by preventing incorporation of the multiple copies of C9 required for complete formation of the osmolytic pore (PubMed:36797260). MAC assembly is also inhibited by clusterin (CLU) chaperones that inhibit polymerization of C9 (PubMed:34667172). Specifically inhibited by the antibody aE11, thereby inhibiting MAC assembly (PubMed:36639734).
Post-translational: 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 (PubMed:8603752). The crystal structures for the human and mouse proteins corrected the positions and connectivities of the disulfide bonds (PubMed:30111885). 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).

Recombinant Human Complement Component C9 Protein (rp188480) - ELISA
Immobilized Recombinant Human Complement Component C9 Protein (rp188480) at 1.0 μg/mL can bind Recombinant C9 Antibody (Ab092295) with the EC₅₀ of 6.2 ng/mL.
Recombinant Human Complement Component C9 Protein (rp188480) - SDS-PAGE
3 μg/lane of Recombinant Human Complement Component C9 Protein was resolved with SDS-PAGE under reducing (R) and non-reducing (N) conditions and visualized by Coomassie® Blue staining, showing a band at 59.1-69.5 kDa under reducing conditions and 54.7-63.9 kDa under non-reducing conditions.
The presence of two bands under non-reducing conditions may be due to the protein existing in two different conformations in this state (Uniprot: P02748).
