CD86 / VioBright 515 / REA1190

Product Details

Description	Clone REA1190 recognizes the mouse CD86 antigen, also known as B7-2, an 80 kDa molecule and a member of the immunoglobulin superfamily. Together with CD80 (B7-1) it belongs to the B7 family of costimulatory molecules. CD86 is expressed on activated antigen-presenting cells, including B cells, dendritic cells, and monocytes/macrophages. The interaction of CD86 with its ligands CD28 and CD152 (CTLA- 4) plays a critical role in induction and regulation of immune responses, e.g., cross-talk between T and B cells, T cell costimulation, or immunoglobulin class-switching. Binding of CD86 to CD28 on T cells results in transduction of costimulatory signals for activation or proliferation of T cells, or cytokine production. In contrast, binding of CD86 to CTLA-4 regulates T cell activation and diminishes the immune response. \| Additional information: Clone REA1190 displays negligible binding to Fc receptors.

About CD86
This gene encodes a type I membrane protein that is a member of the immunoglobulin superfamily. This protein is expressed by antigen-presenting cells, and it is the ligand for two proteins at the cell surface of T cells, CD28 antigen and cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated protein 4. Binding of this protein with CD28 antigen is a costimulatory signal for activation of the T-cell. Binding of this protein with cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated protein 4 negatively regulates T-cell activation and diminishes the immune response. Alternative splicing results in several transcript variants encoding different isoforms.[provided by RefSeq, May 2011]
