Abstract excerpt
Transmembrane nine (TM9) proteins are localized in the secretory pathway of eukaryotic cells and are involved in cell adhesion and phagocytosis. The mechanism by which TM9 proteins operate is, however, not well understood. Here we have utilized elemental profiling by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) to further investigate the physiological function of TM9 proteins. Cellular copper contents in...
