Target description

Cytotoxic T-lymphocyte protein 4 (UniProt: P16410; also known as Cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated antigen 4. CTLA4, CD152) is encoded by the CTLA4 (also known as CD152) gene (Gene ID: 1493) in human. CTLA-4 is a single-pass type I, homodimeric membrane protein that is synthesized with a signal peptide (aa 1-35), which is subsequently cleaved off to produce the mature protein that contains an extracellular domain (aa 36-161), a transmembrane domain (aa 162-182), and a cytoplasmic domain (aa 183-223). It contains two homodimerization domains (aa 46-50 and 150-155). CTLA-4 is widely expressed with highest levels observed in lymphoid tissues. It is also detected in activated T cells where its expression levels are 30- to 50-fold less than CD28, the stimulatory coreceptor. It is not constitutively expressed on T cells but is induced following T cell activation. It serves as an inhibitory receptor acting as a major negative regulator of T-cell responses and plays a major role in downregulation of the immune response. The affinity of CTLA-4 for its natural B7 family ligands, CD80 and CD86, is considerably stronger than the affinity of their cognate stimulatory coreceptor CD28. It interacts with CD80 and CD86 via amino acids 134-139. By limiting CD28-mediated signaling during antigen presentation, CTLA-4 increases the activation threshold of T cells, reducing immune responses to weak antigens such as self- and tumor antigens. CTLA-4 is predominantly found in intracellular vesicles in Treg cells or activated conventional T cells. This localization is due to the constitutive endocytosis of CTLA-4 from the plasma membrane. The endocytosis of CTLA-4 is shown to be extremely rapid and once internalized, it is either recycled to the plasma membrane or is degraded in lysosomal compartment. Phosphorylation of tyrosine 165 by JAK2 is reported to play an important role in its negative signaling and cell surface expression. Phosphorylation of tyrosine 201 is reported to prevent binding to the AP-2 adapter complex and blocks endocytosis that leads to retention of CTLA-4 on the cell surface. Mutations of the AP-2 binding site (Y201F) is shown to increase its retention time on the cell surface. This ZooMAb^® recombinant monoclonal antibody, generated by our propriety technology, offers significantly enhanced specificity, affinity, reproducibility, and stability over conventional monoclonals.

Physical form

Purified recombinant rabbit monoclonal antibody IgG, lyophilized in PBS with 5% Trehalose, normal appearance a coarse or translucent resin. The PBS/trehalose components in the ZooMAb formulation can have the appearance of a semi-solid (bead like gel) after lyophilization. This is a normal phenomenon. Please follow the recommended reconstitution procedure in the data sheet to dissolve the semi-solid, bead-like, gel-appearing material. The resulting antibody solution is completely stable and functional as proven by full functional testing. Contains no biocide or preservatives, such as azide, or any animal by-products. Larger pack sizes provided as multiples of 25 μL.

Reconstitution

300 μg/mL after reconstitution at 25 μL per vial. Please refer to guidance on suggested starting dilutions and/or titers per application and sample type.

Storage and Stability

Recommend storage of lyophilized product at 2-8°C; Before reconstitution, micro-centrifuge vials briefly to spin down material to bottom of the vial; Reconstitute each vial by adding 25 μL of filtered lab grade water or PBS; Reconstituted antibodies can be stored at 2-8°C, or -20°C for long term storage. Avoid repeated freeze-thaws.
