'''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>.
