Datasheet

MSDS

Cytotoxic T-lymphocyte associated protein 4 (CTLA-4) is also known as CD152 (cluster of differentiation 152), CD152 antigen, CTLA4, ALPS5, CD, CELIAC3, GRD4, GSE, and IDDM12. The CTLA-4 dimer protein (CTLA-4 protein dimer, CSP-24031) is a cis-homodimer (cis-dimer) and contains the CTLA-4 extracellular domain (UniProt# P16410, amino acids Lys36-Asp161) fused with a proprietary dimer motif followed by a His tag at the C-terminus. This dimeric protein is expressed in HEK293 cells. The CTLA-4 dimer protein is bioactive and can enhance the binding to CD80. It also binds CTLA-4-specific antibodies. This recombinant CTLA-4 dimer protein can be used as an antigen for in vitro assays and antibody screening, and as an immunogen for immunization to generate antibodies targeting more conformational epitopes.

Protein Construct: CTLA-4 protein dimer contains a CTLA-4 extracellular domainfused with a proprietary dimer motif followed by a His tag at the C-terminus.

Background and Alternate Names

Cytotoxic T-lymphocyte associated protein 4 (CTLA-4), also known as CD152 (cluster of differentiation 152), CD152 antigen, CTLA4, ALPS5, CD, CELIAC3, GRD4, GSE, and IDDM12 is a member of the immunoglobulin superfamily. CTLA-4 contains an extracellular immunoglobulin-like (Ig-like) domain (an Ig-V-like and an Ig-C-like domain), a transmembrane domain, and a cytoplasmic tail. As an immune checkpoint CTLA-4 binds both CD80 (Cluster of differentiation 80) and CD86 (Cluster of differentiation 86) to transmit an inhibitory signal to T cells, competing with CD28 (Cluster of differentiation 28) which transmits a stimulatory signal. It is often overexpressed in malignancies caused by immunosurveillance, making the inhibition of immune checkpoint proteins like CTLA-4 an emerging strategy in cancer therapy. CTLA-4 gene variants have been associated with Type 1 diabetes, Graves’ disease, Hashimoto’s thyroiditis, celiac disease, and other autoimmune diseases.
