Abcam has not and does not intend to apply for the REACH Authorisation of customers' uses of products that contain European Authorisation list (Annex XIV) substances.
It is the responsibility of our customers to check the necessity of application of REACH Authorisation, and any other relevant authorisations, for their intended uses.
Lysate preparation: Our lysates are made using RIPA buffer to which we add a protease inhibitor cocktail and phosphatase inhibitor cocktail (ratio: 300:100:10). This means that the protein of interest is denatured. If you require a native form of the protein please use the live cell version. Please refer to our lysis protocol for further details on how our lysates are prepared.
User storage instructions: Lyophilizate may be stored at 4°C. After reconstitution, store at -20°C for short-term storage or -80°C for long-term storage.
This product is subject to limited use licenses from The Broad Institute and ERS Genomics Limited, and is developed with patented technology. For full details of the limited use licenses and relevant patents please refer to our limited use license and patent pages.
SMAD9 also known as Mothers against decapentaplegic homolog 9 or MADH9 is a transcription factor involved in signal transduction and transcriptional activity. It has a molecular mass of approximately 50 kDa. SMAD9 is widely expressed in various tissues including the heart brain and skeletal muscle. In its mechanical function SMAD9 becomes activated through phosphorylation by type I receptor serine/threonine kinases and forms part of the SMAD protein family that transmits extracellular signals to the nucleus affecting gene expression.
SMAD9 plays a role in the cellular processes of growth and differentiation particularly within the bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) signaling pathway. It operates as part of a complex with other SMAD proteins such as SMAD1 and SMAD5 forming heteromeric complexes that regulate the transcription of BMP-responsive genes. This gene transcription is vital for the development and repair of tissues as well as the maintenance of cellular homeostasis.
SMAD9 participates significantly in the BMP and transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-β) signaling pathways. These pathways are important for a variety of cellular responses including proliferation apoptosis and differentiation. SMAD9 associates with BMP receptors to mediate the BMP signaling cascade acting synergistically with other SMAD family members like SMAD4 which is a common mediator in these pathways. This interrelation places SMAD9 at a pivotal point within the regulation of multiple cellular responses.
Research indicates that SMAD9 mutations or dysregulation can associate with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) and certain forms of cancer. In PAH altered SMAD9 signaling disrupts normal vascular remodeling resulting in elevated pulmonary artery pressure. Additionally it can interact with other proteins like BMPR2 a receptor for BMP which also plays a significant role in the pathogenesis of PAH. Understanding the involvement of SMAD9 in these conditions can provide insights into potential therapeutic targets for treatment.
