InnateDB Annotation
Summary
PMID 21239714
S100a9 forms a complex with S100a8 and the complex is the site of interplay between extracellular Ca(2+) entry and intra-phagosomal reactive oxygen species production. S100a8 :: S100a9 acts as Ca(2+) sensor in phagosomal ROS production.
PMID 21382888
S100a9-deficient murine neutrophils exhibited a reduce secretion of cytokines in response to Tlr4 stimulation. In contrast, S100a9-deficient dendritic cells showed an exacerbated release of cytokines after TLR stimulation. S100a9 has no effect on the inflammatory status of macrophages.
PMID 22423963
S100a9 is strongly upregulated in neutrophils upon bacterial infection, and sequesters zinc as a mechanism of nutritional immunity. Salmonella typhimurium overcomes this defence mechanism by expressing a high affinity zinc transporter.
PMID 23133376
S100A9 forms a heterodimer with S100A8 and is a key player in protective innate immunity during Klebsiella pneumonia infection.
PMID 25911757
S100a8/S100a9 are proinflammatory proteins that activate natural killer cells via Ager signalling.

Summary
PMID 12626582
[Homo sapiens] S100A9 is an intracellular calcium-binding protein that promotes neutrophil/monocyte recruitment at inflamed tissues by enhancing attachment to endothelial cells.
PMID 18714033
[Homo sapiens] S100A9 is a myeloid-related protein that rapidly modulates macrophage nitric oxide production during innate immune response.
PMID 20555353
[Homo sapiens] S100A9 (calgranulin B) and S100A8 (calgranulin A) form an antimicrobial heterodimeric complex known as calprotectin. Bacterial flagellin induces the upregulation of S100A9/S100A8 heterodimer via a TLR5-dependent mechanism in epidermal keratinocytes.

[Homo sapiens] S100A9 forms a heterodimer with S100A8 and is a key player in protective innate immunity during Klebsiella pneumonia infection.
PMID 23431180
[Homo sapiens] S100A8::S100A9 heterodimer sequesters Mn(2+) and Zn(2+) to starve bacteria of these essential nutrients.
Entrez Gene
Summary This gene does not have any Entrez summary - the following is the summary from its human ortholog ENSG00000163220:
The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the S100 family of proteins containing 2 EF-hand calcium-binding motifs. S100 proteins are localized in the cytoplasm and/or nucleus of a wide range of cells, and involved in the regulation of a number of cellular processes such as cell cycle progression and differentiation. S100 genes include at least 13 members which are located as a cluster on chromosome 1q21. This protein may function in the inhibition of casein kinase and altered expression of this protein is associated with the disease cystic fibrosis. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
