Invitrogen™ CTLA-4 Monoclonal Antibody (BNI3), Alexa Fluor™ 647

Mouse Monoclonal Antibody

Supplier:  Invitrogen™ MA544148

Catalog No. PIMA544148

Description

This antibody recognizes an extracellular domain of human CD152 / CTLA4, an approximately 45 kDa type I transmembrane protein serving as a negative regulator of T cell responses.

CTLA4 (Cytotoxic T-Lymphocyte Antigen 4) is a CD28-family receptor expressed on mainly CD4+ T cells. It binds the same ligands as CD28 (CD80 and CD86 on B cells and dendritic cells), but with higher affinity than CD28. However, in contrast to CD28 which enhances cell function when bound at the same time as the T cell receptor, CTLA4 inhbits the T cell and prevents it from functioning. Intracellular CTLA4 is also found in regulatory T cells and may be important to their function.
