Target Details for CTLA4

Target: CTLA4 (Cytotoxic T-Lymphocyte-Associated Protein 4 (CTLA4))

Alternative Name: CD152 / CTLA4

Background: The lymphocyte surface antigen CD152, also known as CTLA-4, is related to the co-stimulatory molecule CD28, and both molecules share common B7 family counter-receptors. (Ref.1-4) However CD152 is thought to be a negative regulator of T cell activation (Ref.1-3) and may play a role in apoptotic control of T cells. CD152 exists as a 69 kDa homodimer (Ref.1), and is relatively conserved among Humans, Mice and Chickens.
