Target
-
Function
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. -
Tissue specificity
Plasma. -
Involvement in disease
Defects in C9 are a cause of complement component 9 deficiency (C9D) [MIM:613825]. A rare defect of the complement classical pathway associated with susceptibility to severe recurrent infections, predominantly by Neisseria gonorrhoeae or Neisseria meningitidis. -
Sequence similarities
Belongs to the complement C6/C7/C8/C9 family.
Contains 1 EGF-like domain.
Contains 1 LDL-receptor class A domain.
Contains 1 MACPF domain.
Contains 1 TSP type-1 domain. -
Post-translational
modificationsThrombin cleaves factor C9 to produce C9a and C9b.
Phosphorylation sites are present in the extracelllular medium. -
Cellular localization
Secreted. Cell membrane. 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. - Information by UniProt

All lanes : Anti-C9 antibody (ab67040) at 1 µg/ml
Lane 1 : Human Plasma Total Protein Lysate
Lane 2 : Human placenta tissue lysate - total protein (ab29745)
Lysates/proteins at 10 µg per lane.
Secondary
All lanes : Goat polyclonal to Rabbit IgG - H&L - Pre-Adsorbed (HRP) at 1/3000 dilution
Developed using the ECL technique.
Performed under reducing conditions.
Predicted band size: 63 kDa
Observed band size: 74 kDa why is the actual band size different from the predicted?
Additional bands at: 40 kDa. We are unsure as to the identity of these extra bands.
Exposure time: 16 minutes
Human Complement component C9 precursor contains a number of potential glycosylation sites (SwissProt) which may explain its migration at a higher molecular weight than predicted. The 74 kDa band observed is also comparable to the molecular weight seen with other commercially available antibodies to C9.
