Function
Receptor involved in the costimulatory signal essential for T-lymphocyte proliferation and interleukin-2 production, by binding CD28 or CTLA-4. May play a critical role in the early events of T-cell activation and costimulation of naive T-cells, such as deciding between immunity and anergy that is made by T-cells within 24 hours after activation. Isoform 2 interferes with the formation of CD86 clusters, and thus acts as a negative regulator of T-cell activation. -
Tissue specificity
Expressed by activated B-lymphocytes and monocytes. -
Sequence similarities
Contains 1 Ig-like C2-type (immunoglobulin-like) domain.
Contains 1 Ig-like V-type (immunoglobulin-like) domain. -
Post-translational
modificationsPolyubiquitinated; which is promoted by MARCH8 and results in endocytosis and lysosomal degradation. -
Cellular localization
