General description

CTLA4 (cytotoxic T-lymphocyte associated protein 4) or CD152 (cluster of differentiation) is a T cell receptor which belongs to the immunoglobulin (Ig) superfamily or CD28 family. It is expressed on the surface of Th (T helper) cells. This gene is localized to human chromosome 2q33. This protein is composed of a cytosolic domain, a transmembrane region and a V domain of 116 amino acids. Alternative splicing results in membrane and soluble forms, where membrane forms work as homodimers and soluble isoforms as monomers.

Immunogen

purified recombinant mouse cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated molecule 4 extracellualr domain, expressed in mouse NSO cells.

Biochem/physiol Actions

CTLA4 (cytotoxic T-lymphocyte associated protein 4) is responsible for inhibiting T-cell proliferation and facilitates T cell apoptosis. This protein is expressed post-antigen presentation, and thus, is involved in immune and autoimmune disorders. Therefore, it is also implicated in the pathogenesis of various T cell mediated autoimmune disorders.

Physical form

Lyophilized from a 0.2 μm filtered solution in phosphate buffered saline, pH 7.4 with 5% trehalose.
