Immunogen: |
DNA sequence encoding Human CD4/LEU3 including a C-His-Avi tag was expressed in HEK293 Cells. The recombinant protein was then biotinylated site specific using the AVItag biotinylation technology. |
Post Translational Modifications | Palmitoylation and association with LCK contribute to the enrichment of CD4 in lipid rafts. Phosphorylated by PKC.phosphorylation at Ser-433 plays an important role for CD4 internalization. |
Function | Integral membrane glycoprotein that plays an essential role in the immune response and serves multiple functions in responses against both external and internal offenses. In T-cells, functions primarily as a coreceptor for MHC class II molecule:peptide complex. The antigens presented by class II peptides are derived from extracellular proteins while class I peptides are derived from cytosolic proteins. Interacts simultaneously with the T-cell receptor (TCR) and the MHC class II presented by antigen presenting cells (APCs). In turn, recruits the Src kinase LCK to the vicinity of the TCR-CD3 complex. LCK then initiates different intracellular signaling pathways by phosphorylating various substrates ultimately leading to lymphokine production, motility, adhesion and activation of T-helper cells. In other cells such as macrophages or NK cells, plays a role in differentiation/activation, cytokine expression and cell migration in a TCR/LCK-independent pathway. Participates in the development of T-helper cells in the thymus and triggers the differentiation of monocytes into functional mature macrophages. (Microbial infection) Primary receptor for human immunodeficiency virus-1 (HIV-1). Down-regulated by HIV-1 Vpu. Acts as a receptor for Human Herpes virus 7/HHV-7. |
