S100 protein is a family of low molecular weight protein found in vertebrates characterized by two EF-hand calcium-binding motifs. There are at least 21 different S100 proteins, and the name is derived from the fact that the protein is 100% soluble in ammonium sulfate at neutral pH. Most S100 proteins are disulfide-linked homodimer, and is normally present in cells derived from the neural crest, chondrocytes, macrophages, dendritic cells, etc. S100 proteins have been implicated in a variety of intracellular and extracellular functions. They are involved in regulation of protein phosphorylation, transcription factors, the dynamics of cytoskeleton constituents, enzyme activities, cell growth and differentiation, and the inflammatory response. Protein S100-A9, also known as S100 calcium-binding protein A9, S100A9, and CAGB, is a member of the S-100 family. S100A9 is expressed by macrophages in acutely inflammed tissues and in chronic inflammation. It is also expressed in epithelial cells constitutively or induced during dermatoses. S100A9 is a calcium-binding protein. It has anti-microbial activity towards bacteria and fungi. The anti-microbial and proapoptotic activity of S100A9 is inhibited by zinc ions. S100A9 plays a role in the development of endotoxic shock in response to bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS). It promotes tubulin polymerization when unphosphorylated. It also promotes phagocyte migration and infiltration of granulocytes at sites of wounding. S100A9 plays a role as a pro-inflammatory mediator in acute and chronic inflammation and up-regulates the release of IL8 and cell-surface expression of ICAM1.

Baculovirus-Insect Cells

A DNA sequence encoding the human S100A9 (NP_002956.1) (Met 1-Pro 114) was expressed, fused with a polyhistidine tag at the C-terminus.

Human

The recombinant human S100A9 consists of 124 amino acids and predicts a molecular mass of 14.6 kDa. It migrates as an approximately 16 kDa band in SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions.

> 95 % as determined by SDS-PAGE

1. Measured by its ability to bind recombinant human S100A8-his in a functional ELISA.
2. Measured by its ability to bind recombinant human his-S100A8 in a functional ELISA.
3. Measured by its ability to inhibit the proliferation of MCF7 human breast adenocarcinoma cells. The ED₅₀ for this effect is typically 10-30 μg/mL.
