CTLA4 is a member of the immunoglobulin superfamily and encodes a protein which transmits an inhibitory signal to T cells.
The protein contains a V domain, a transmembrane domain, and a cytoplasmic tail.
Alternate transcriptional splice variants, encoding different isoforms, have been characterized.
The membrane-bound isoform functions as a homodimer interconnected by a disulfide bond, while the soluble isoform functions as a monomer.
Mutations in CTLA4 have been associated with insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus, Graves disease, Hashimoto thyroiditis, celiac disease, systemic lupus erythematosus, thyroid-associated orbitopathy, and other autoimmune diseases.
