Description

General description

Cluster of differentiation 4 (CD4) 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.

The antibody MEM-241 recognizes CD4 antigen, a 55 kDa transmebrane glycoprotein expressed on a subset of T lymphocytes ("helper" T-cells) and also on monocytes, tissue macrophages and granulocytes.

Immunogen

2 N-terminal domains of human CD4 fused to human IgG1 Fc

Application

The reagent is designed for Flow Cytometry analysis of human blood cells using 20 μL reagent / 100 μL of whole blood or 1e6 cells in a suspension. The content of a vial (2 mL) is sufficient for 100 tests.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Cluster of differentiation 4 (CD4) facilitates the activation of immunostimulatory T-cells. It serves as a primary receptor for human immunodeficiency virus (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.
