CTLA-4 Protein, Guinea pig (P.pastoris, His)

Cat. No.: HY-P71986
COA Handling Instructions

CTLA-4 protein, a potent inhibitory receptor, plays a crucial role in suppressing T-cell responses by binding strongly to its ligands CD80 and CD86, surpassing the affinity of CD28. This heightened affinity allows CTLA-4 to act as a major negative regulator, maintaining immune homeostasis and preventing excessive T-cell activation. The balance between CTLA-4 and its ligands is pivotal for immune regulation. CTLA-4 Protein, Guinea pig (P.pastoris, His) is the recombinant CTLA-4 protein, expressed by P. pastoris , with C-6*His labeled tag. The total length of CTLA-4 Protein, Guinea pig (P.pastoris, His) is 125 a.a., with molecular weight of ~18.0 kDa.

Description

Background

CTLA-4 protein functions as a prominent inhibitory receptor, playing a crucial role in dampening T-cell responses. Its inhibitory action stems from the remarkably strong affinity CTLA-4 exhibits for its natural B7 family ligands, CD80 and CD86, surpassing the affinity of their counterpart stimulatory coreceptor, CD28. By virtue of this heightened affinity, CTLA-4 serves as a major negative regulator in the intricate orchestration of T-cell activation and immune responses. The nuanced balance between stimulatory and inhibitory signals mediated by CTLA-4 and its ligands is pivotal for maintaining immune homeostasis and preventing excessive or aberrant T-cell activation.

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.

The reconstitution calculator equation

Volume (to add to vial) = Mass (in vial) ÷ Desired Reconstitution Concentration

Volume (to add to vial) = Mass (in vial) ÷ Desired Reconstitution Concentration
= ÷

The dilution calculator equation

Concentration (start) × Volume (start) = Concentration (final) × Volume (final)

This equation is commonly abbreviated as: C1V1 = C2V2

Concentration (start) × Volume (start) = Concentration (final) × Volume (final)

The specific activity calculator equation

Specific Activity (Unit/mg) = 106 ÷ Biological Activity (ED50)

Specific Activity (Unit/mg) = 106 ÷ Biological Activity (ED50)
Unit/mg = 106 ÷ ng/mL
