Recombinant Mouse CD147 Protein (aa 1-209) [His] (VAng-Cr3913)
Recombinant Mouse CD147 Protein (Met 1-Arg 209) fused with a His tag at C-terminus was expressed in HEK293 Cells, with a molecular weight of 30 kDa. (Accession ID: NP_001070652.1)
CD147, also known as extracellular matrix metalloproteinase inducer (EMMPRIN) or cluster of differentiation 147 (CD147) is a protein that in humans. This protein is a determinant for the Ok blood group system. It has been shown to be an essential receptor on red blood cells for the human malaria parasite. It is a member of the immunoglobulin superfamily, with a structure related to the putative primordial form of the family. As members of the immunoglobulin superfamily play fundamental roles in intercellular recognition involved in various immunologic phenomena, differentiation, and development, basigin is thought also to play a role in intercellular recognition. It has a variety of functions. In addition to its metalloproteinase-inducing ability, basigin also regulates several distinct functions, such as spermatogenesis, expression of the monocarboxylate transporter and the responsiveness of lymphocytes.
