Results | Measured by its binding ability in a functional ELISA. Immobilized Human CTLA4 Protein at 2 µg/ml (100 µl/well) can bind rhB7-1/ CD80 Protein Fc Chimera with a linear range of 0.2 - 20 ng/ml, when detected by HRP labeled Goat anti Human IgG Fc PAb. Measured by its binding ability in a functional ELISA. Immobilized Human CTLA4 Protein at 1 µg/ml (100 µl/well) can bind rh PD-L1 /B7-H1 /CD274 Protein Fc Chimera with a linear range of 20 - 200 ng/ml, when detected by HRP labeled Goat anti Human IgG Fc PAb. |
Target/Specificity | CTLA4/CD152 |
Application Notes | Centrifuge the vial prior to opening. Reconstitute in sterile PBS, pH 7.4 to a concentration of 50 µg/ml. Do not vortex. This solution can be stored at 2-8°C for up to 1 month. For extended storage, it is recommended to store at -20°C. |
Format | Lyophilized |
Storage | -20°C; Lyophilized from 0.22 µm filtered solution in PBS, pH 7.4. Normally Mannitol or Trehalose is added as protectants before lyophilization. |

Background
CTLA-4 (Cytotoxic T-Lymphocyte Antigen 4) is also known as CD152 (Cluster of differentiation 152), is a protein receptor that downregulates the immune system. CTLA4 is a member of the immunoglobulin superfamily, which is expressed on the surface of Helper T cells and transmits an inhibitory signal to T cells. The protein contains an extracellular V domain, a transmembrane domain, and a cytoplasmic tail. Alternate splice variants, encoding different isoforms. CTLA4 is similar to the T-cell co-stimulatory protein, CD28, and both molecules bind to CD80 and CD86, also called B7-1 and B7-2 respectively, on antigen-presenting cells. CTLA4 transmits an inhibitory signal to T cells, whereas CD28 transmits a stimulatory signal. Intracellular CTLA4 is also found in regulatory T cells and may be important to their function. T cell activation through the T cell receptor and CD28 leads to increased expression of CTLA-4, an inhibitory receptor for B7 molecules. Fusion proteins of CTLA4 and antibodies (CTLA4-Ig) have been used in clinical trials for rheumatoid arthritis.
