CTLA-4 Monoclonal / APC / REA984
Product Details
| Description | Clone REA984 recognizes the mouse CD152 antigen, also known as cytotoxic T lymphocyte antigen-4 (CTLA-4), which is a 33 kDa member of the immunoglobin superfamily and is expressed on activated T cells at a low level. CTLA-4 and CD28 have similarities concerning B7 family counter-receptors. While CD28 delivers a co-stimulary signal in T cell activation, CD152 restricts the progression of T cells to an activated state by inhibiting interleukin 2 (IL-2) secretion and cellular proliferation. A large proportion of CTLA-4 is intracellular localized. For a complete detection it may be necessary to assess intracellular staining in addition to surface expression of CD152. | Additional information: Clone REA984 displays negligible binding to Fc receptors. | |

About CTLA-4
This gene is a member of the immunoglobulin superfamily and encodes a protein which transmits an inhibitory signal to T cells. The protein contains a V domain, a transmembrane domain, and a cytoplasmic tail. Alternate transcriptional splice variants, encoding different isoforms, have been characterized. The membrane-bound isoform functions as a homodimer interconnected by a disulfide bond, while the soluble isoform functions as a monomer. Mutations in this gene have been associated with insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus, Graves disease, Hashimoto thyroiditis, celiac disease, systemic lupus erythematosus, thyroid-associated orbitopathy, and other autoimmune diseases.

About APC
Allophycocyanin (APC) is a fluorescent protein derived from cyanobacteria and red algae and a potent donor fluorophore to create tandem dyes that can be excited off the 633-640 nm laser. APC has an excitation peak at 650 nm and a emission peak at 660 nm.
