Leukocyte immunoglobulin-like receptor subfamily A member 4 (LILRA4/ILT7/CD85g) is a marker of plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs), which are reported to be a major source of the abnormally high levels of IFNα associated with autoimmune diseases.
Targeting LILRA4 with therapeutic antibodies to promote killing of these IFNα-producing pDCs is being investigated as a novel approach to alleviating the symptoms of autoimmune diseases.
LILRA4 is an immunoglobulin-like protein preferentially expressed on the surface of human plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs).
It interacts with bone marrow stromal cell antigen 2 to control the Toll-like receptor (TLR) driven response by pDCs to viral infection.
It may also be involved in modulating pDC-tumour interactions.
pDCs are a source of the excess IFNα which drives autoimmune disease symptoms.
特徴
This protein carries a polyhistidine tag at the C-terminus.
The protein has a calculated MW of 48.5 kDa.
The protein migrates as 60-66 kDa under reducing (R) condition (SDS-PAGE) due to glycosylation.
