UniProt functional annotation for Q28090

UniProt code: Q28090.

Organism: Bos taurus (Bovine).
Taxonomy: Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi; Mammalia; Eutheria; Laurasiatheria; Artiodactyla; Ruminantia; Pecora; Bovidae; Bovinae; Bos.
 
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:0000256|ARBA:ARBA00002230}.
 
Subcellular location: Cell membrane {ECO:0000256|ARBA:ARBA00004251}; Single-pass type I membrane protein {ECO:0000256|ARBA:ARBA00004251}. Membrane {ECO:0000256|ARBA:ARBA00004479}; Single-pass type I membrane protein {ECO:0000256|ARBA:ARBA00004479}.
