    • General notes

      Reproducibility is key to advancing scientific discovery and accelerating scientists’ next breakthrough.

      Abcam is leading the way with our range of recombinant antibodies, knockout-validated antibodies and knockout cell lines, all of which support improved reproducibility.

      We are also planning to innovate the way in which we present recommended applications and species on our product datasheets, so that only applications & species that have been tested in our own labs, our suppliers or by selected trusted collaborators are covered by our Abpromise™ guarantee.

      In preparation for this, we have started to update the applications & species that this product is Abpromise guaranteed for.

      We are also updating the applications & species that this product has been “predicted to work with,” however this information is not covered by our Abpromise guarantee.

      Applications & species from publications and Abreviews that have not been tested in our own labs or in those of our suppliers are not covered by the Abpromise guarantee.

      Please check that this product meets your needs before purchasing. If you have any questions, special requirements or concerns, please send us an inquiry and/or contact our Support team ahead of purchase.

    Target

    • Function

      Accessory protein for MHC class-II antigen/T-cell receptor interaction. May regulate T-cell activation. Induces the aggregation of lipid rafts.

    • Sequence similarities

      Contains 3 Ig-like C2-type (immunoglobulin-like) domains.
      Contains 1 Ig-like V-type (immunoglobulin-like) domain.

    • Post-translational
      modifications

      Palmitoylation and association with LCK contribute to the enrichment of CD4 in lipid rafts.

    • Cellular localization

      Cell membrane. Localizes to lipid rafts. Removed from plasma membrane by HIV-1 Nef protein that increases clathrin-dependent endocytosis of this antigen to target it to lysosomal degradation. Cell surface expression is also down-modulated by HIV-1 Envelope polyprotein gp160 that interacts with, and sequesters CD4 in the endoplasmic reticulum.
