Extra Details:
Activation of the complement system results in formation of the membrane attack complex (MAC) on the membranes of target cells. The complex is assembled by sequential addition of 1 molecule each of C5b, C6, C7, and C8 and 6 to 16 molecules of the ninth component, C9. DiScipio et al. (1984) screened a human liver cDNA library by the colony-hybridization technique using 2 radiolabelled oligonucleotide probes that correspond to known regions of the C9 aa sequence. The cDNA coding for C9 was sequenced and the protein sequence--537aa in a single polypeptide chain-was derived. The N-terminal half of C9 is predominantly hydrophilic and the C-terminal half is more hydrophobic. Applications: Suitable for use in ELISA, Western Blot, Immunohistochemistry and Immunocytochemistry. Other applications not tested. Recommended Dilution: Western Blot: 0.5-2ug/ml Immunohistochemistry: 5-20ug/ml Immunocytochemistry: 5-20ug/ml Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher. Storage and Stability: May be stored at 4°C for short-term only. Aliquot to avoid repeated freezing and thawing. Store at -20°C. Aliquots are stable for 12 months after receipt. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap.
