CTLA-4 Protein, Mouse (Biotinylated, HEK293, His-Avi)

CTLA-4 is a key inhibitory receptor that serves as a major negative regulator of T cell responses in immune regulation. Its unique property is that its affinity to B7 ligands (CD80/CD86) is significantly higher than that of CD28. CTLA-4 Protein, Mouse (Biotinylated, HEK293, His-Avi) is the recombinant mouse-derived CTLA-4 protein, expressed by HEK293 , with C-Avi, C-His labeled tag.

Biological Activity

Description

CTLA-4 is a key inhibitory receptor that serves as a major negative regulator of T cell responses in immune regulation. Its unique property is that its affinity to B7 ligands (CD80/CD86) is significantly higher than that of CD28. CTLA-4 Protein, Mouse (Biotinylated, HEK293, His-Avi) is the recombinant mouse-derived CTLA-4 protein, expressed by HEK293 , with C-Avi, C-His labeled tag.

Background

CTLA-4, a pivotal inhibitory receptor, acts as a primary negative regulator in T-cell responses, exerting its influence within the intricate network of immune modulation. This regulatory function arises from the distinct property of CTLA-4, showcasing significantly heightened affinity for its natural B7 family ligands, CD80 and CD86, in comparison to the cognate stimulatory coreceptor CD28. The homodimeric structure of CTLA-4, intricately linked by disulfide bonds, underscores its role as a molecular sentinel in immune regulation. Functionally, CTLA-4 binds avidly to CD80/B7-1 and CD86/B7.2, competitively engaging with these ligands to suppress T-cell activation and finely tune immune responses. Additionally, CTLA-4 interacts with ICOSLG, contributing to its multifaceted engagement in immune checkpoint pathways.

Reconstitution

It is not recommended to reconstitute to a concentration less than 100 μg/mL in ddH2O. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% BSA, 5% HSA, 10% FBS or 5% Trehalose).

Storage & Stability

Stored at -20°C for 2 years from date of receipt. After reconstitution, it is stable at 4°C for 1 week or -20°C for longer (with carrier protein). It is recommended to freeze aliquots at -20°C or -80°C for extended storage.

Shipping

Room temperature in continental US; may vary elsewhere.
