Anti-SLAM family member 9 SLAMF9 Antibody

The SLAM (signalling lymphocyte activation molecule) family is a novel group of receptors on T cells in modulating the immune response. SLAMF9, also known as CD2F-10 or CD84 homolog, is a 289 amino acid type I transmembrane protein that shares 58% identity with the mouse protein. The SLAMF9 protein is predominantly expressed in hematopoietic tissues and contains an extracellular region with only two N-linked glycosylation sites, a 20-residue transmembrane region and a highly positively charged 30-residue cytoplasmic tail, suggesting a role for SLAMF9 as an adhesion molecule. SLAMF9 is thought to function in the immune response as a coreceptor for lymphocyte activation.

SLAMF9 antibody was raised against a 19 amino acid synthetic peptide near the carboxy terminus of human SLAMF9. The immunogen is located within the last 50 amino acids of SLAMF9.

SLAMF9 antibody can be stored at 4°C for three months and -20°C, stable for up to one year. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles. Antibodies should not be exposed to prolonged high temperatures.
