Description
Rat anti Mouse CD4 antibody, clone GK1.5 recognizes mouse CD4, a ~55 kDa protein also known as Ly-4 and L3T4. CD4 is a single chain transmembraneous glycoprotein which belongs to the immunoglobulin superfamily, and is primarily expressed on T helper cells, peripheral blood monocytes and tissue macrophages. CD4 is also expressed on a subpopulation of regulatory T cells (CD4+ CD25+), which play a key role in the maintenance of self tolerance. Rat anti Mouse CD4 antibody, clone GK1.5 has been reported to block CD4+ T-cell activation. It blocks class II MHC antigen-specific binding, thereby inhibiting functions such as class II MHC antigen-specific proliferation and the release of lymphokines. It may also be used for in vivo and in vitro cell depletion of CD4+ T-cells.
