Human CTLA4 Protein (C-His) on SDS-PAGE under reducing condition (P+) and non-reducing condition (P-). The gel was stained for 1 hour with BlinkBlue (catalog 700102). The purity of this protein appears to be greater than 90% under non-reducing conditions.
Streptavidin is coated at 2 µg/mL (200 ng/well). Biotinylated Human B7-1 (C-Fc-Avi) is captured on the streptavidin-coated plate at the same concentration. Human CTLA-4 (C-His) binds to the immobilized Biotinylated Human B7-1 in a dose-dependent manner, with an ED₅₀ in the range of 0.1–1 ng/mL.

Protein Concentration
25µg size is bottled at 0.2mg/mL concentration. 100 µg size is supplied at a lot-specific concentration.
Storage and Handling
Briefly centrifuge the vial upon receipt. An unopened vial can be stored at 4°C for up to 2 weeks, or at -20°C or below for up to six months. The protein may be further diluted to 0.1 mg/mL using 0.22 µm-filtered PBS buffer (pH 7.4). For long-term storage, the diluted stock solution should be aliquoted and stored at ≤ –70°C to minimize freeze-thaw cycles. If additional dilution is required, carrier proteins such as FBS or BSA should be added to maintain protein stability.
Background Information
Cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated protein 4 (CTLA-4), also known as CD152, is an immune checkpoint receptor found on T cells. It shares 30% homology with CD28 and binds to the same ligands, B7.1/CD80 and B7.2/CD86, but with higher affinity. After T-cell activation, increased CTLA-4 expression leads to immune suppression by binding to CD80/CD86, inhibiting further T-cell activation through a process called trans-endocytosis.CTLA-4 is crucial for immune regulation and tolerance, especially on regulatory T cells (Tregs). Soluble CTLA-4 (sCTLA-4) further enhances Treg function and is linked to autoimmune diseases like type 1 diabetes. Additionally, CTLA-4 plays a role in chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) progression.Due to its immune-modulatory role, CTLA-4 is targeted in cancer therapy. Ipilimumab, a monoclonal antibody that blocks CTLA-4, is approved for melanoma and is being explored for other cancers.
