Abstract

CD63 belongs to the Transmembrane 4 superfamily (TM4SF) of membrane proteins whose functions are largely unknown. Previous results have suggested that CD63 may play an important role in the regulation of melanoma progression. To explore the role of CD63 in melanoma we have examined its association with other molecules by immunoprecipitation of CD63 from detergent induced lysates of melanoma cells. These results are the first to demonstrate an association between CD63 and two other TM4SF members, CD9 and CD81 in 2 human melanoma cell lines. We are also able to identify an association between CD9 and CD63 with beta 1 integrins in melanoma. The results suggest that CD63 is capable of forming multicomponent complexes with TM4SF members and beta 1 integrins on the surface of melanoma. These findings provide further insights into the function of CD63.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 6. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 11 February 2024.
All research outputs
#5,446,210
of 25,371,288 outputs
Outputs from Biochemical & Biophysical Research Communications
#3,056
of 26,637 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#3,693
of 26,598 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Biochemical & Biophysical Research Communications
#16
of 125 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,371,288 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done well and is in the 75th percentile: it's in the top 25% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 26,637 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 4.5. This one has done well, scoring higher than 75% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 26,598 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 72% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 125 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 58% of its contemporaries.
