| Function |
Inhibitory receptor acting as a major negative regulator of T-cell responses. The affinity of CTLA4 for its natural B7 family ligands, CD80 and CD86, is considerably stronger than the affinity of their cognate stimulatory coreceptor CD28. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16551244, ECO:0000269|PubMed:1714933}.
|
| Subcellular Location |
Cell membrane {ECO:0000269|PubMed:18468488}; Single-pass type I membrane protein {ECO:0000269|PubMed:18468488}. Note=Exists primarily an intracellular antigen whose surface expression is tightly regulated by restricted trafficking to the cell surface and rapid internalisation;.
|
| Tissue Specificity |
Widely expressed with highest levels in lymphoid tissues. Detected in activated T-cells where expression levels are 30- to 50-fold less than CD28, the stimulatory coreceptor, on the cell surface following activation. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10493833, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16551244, ECO:0000269|PubMed:1713603}.
