CD4 (cluster of differentiation 4) molecule is encoded by the gene mapped to human chromosome 12p13.31. The encoded protein is mainly localized on the surface of specific leukocytes. CD4 is characterized with a four ecto-domains (D1-D4) of which D1, D2 and D4 contain disulfide bonds.

生物化学的/生理学的作用
CD4 (cluster of differentiation 4) facilitates the activation of immunostimulatory T-cells. It serves as a primary receptor for HIV-1 entry. The encoded protein also plays a key role in altering cell elasticity. Elevated expression of soluble CD4 has been observed in patients of infectious and chronic inflammatory diseases and rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Thus, this protein can be used as a potential diagnostic marker for the development of RA.
