Human CD4 protein is also known as IL16 receptor (IL16R). CD4 dimer (CSP-24004) contains CD4 extracellular 4-domains (amino acids Lys26- Phe396, UniProt# A0A4Y5UGE4) with a homodimer motif and a His tag at the C-terminus. This protein is expressed in HEK293 cells. The CD4 dimer protein is bioactive and can bind to HIV-1 envelope glycoproteins (Env) from various subtypes with on average >10-fold binding activity increases compared to CD4 monomer protein. The HIV-1 Env binding to CD4 dimer can be diminished by a D368R mutation. CD4 dimer also increases the binding to CD4-specific antibodies. This CD4 dimer can be used as an immunogen for animal immunization (RUO) and as an antigen for in vitro assays and antibody screening targeting more conformations epitopes.

Background
CD4 is type 1 integral membrane glycoprotein protein on a T cell surface, also known as known as T-cell surface antigen T4/Leu-3. CD4 contains an extracellular domain, a transmembrane domain and a cytoplasmic domain. The extracellular domain has 4 immunoglobulin-like (Ig-like) domains: one Ig-like V-type domain and three Ig-like C2-type domains. The CD4 extracellular domain is responsible for MHC class-II antigen/T-cell receptor interaction and T cell activation. CD4 is also known as interleukin 16 receptor (IL16R). The IL16 cytokine binds CD4 to activate a downstream signalling cascade. CD4 is also the primary receptor for the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) envelope glycoprotein gp120 to mediate HIV infection and entry into host T cells, as the underlying cause of acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS).
