'''Basigin''' or '''CD147''' or '''EMMORIN''' is a transmembranal glycoprotein which is a receptor for a variety of proteins and is expressed by tumor cells<ref>PMID:26684586</ref>. Basigin has several isoforms and contains immunoglobulin-like domains (Ig-like). Alternative splicing of basigin results in 4 different isoforms. Basigin-2 is the most predominant form and contains 2 Ig-like domains. Basigin-1 contains 3 Ig-like domains, basigin-3 contains 1 Ig-like domain<ref>PMID:21536654</ref>. | '''Basigin''' or '''CD147''' or '''EMMORIN''' is a transmembranal glycoprotein which is a receptor for a variety of proteins and is expressed by tumor cells<ref>PMID:26684586</ref>.

The 3D structure of the complex between basigin and the malaria causing ''Plasmodium falciparum'' erythrocyte invading protein reticulocyte binding protein 5 (RH5) shows the N-terminal and C-terminal domains of basigin. RH5 and basigin interact via various hydrogen bonds in both the N-terminal and C-terminal domains as well as via the 2 domains' linker His102. In addition, the structure shows several hydrophobic interactions between the two proteins<ref>PMID:25132548</ref>. | |||
