  ID: CD4_HUMAN
DESCRIPTION: RecName: Full=T-cell surface glycoprotein CD4; AltName: Full=T-cell surface antigen T4/Leu-3; AltName: CD_antigen=CD4; Flags: Precursor;
FUNCTION: Accessory protein for MHC class-II antigen/T-cell receptor interaction. May regulate T-cell activation. Induces the aggregation of lipid rafts.
SUBUNIT: Associates with LCK. Binds to HIV-1 gp120 and to P4HB/PDI and upon HIV-1 binding to the cell membrane, is part of P4HB/PDI- CD4-CXCR4-gp120 complex. Interacts with HIV-1 Envelope polyprotein gp160 and protein Vpu. Interacts with Human Herpes virus 7 capsid proteins. Interacts with PTK2/FAK1; this interaction requires the presence of HIV-1 gp120.
SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cell membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein. Note=Localizes to lipid rafts. Removed from plasma membrane by HIV-1 Nef protein that increases clathrin-dependent endocytosis of this antigen to target it to lysosomal degradation. Cell surface expression is also down-modulated by HIV-1 Envelope polyprotein gp160 that interacts with, and sequesters CD4 in the endoplasmic reticulum.
PTM: Palmitoylation and association with LCK contribute to the enrichment of CD4 in lipid rafts.
POLYMORPHISM: The OKT monoclonal antibodies are widely used for the analysis of human peripheral blood T-lymphocytes. OKT4 reacts with T-helper/inducer lymphocytes. The OKT4 epitope of the CD4 cell-surface protein is polymorphic in white, black, and Japanese populations. The variable phenotypic expression is due a CD4 polymorphism. OKT4 positive individuals carry Arg-265 and OKT4 negative individuals carry Trp-265 [MIM:613949].
MISCELLANEOUS: Primary receptor for HIV-1.
SIMILARITY: Contains 3 Ig-like C2-type (immunoglobulin-like) domains.
SIMILARITY: Contains 1 Ig-like V-type (immunoglobulin-like) domain.

The pictures above may be empty if there is no ModBase structure for the protein. The ModBase structure frequently covers just a fragment of the protein. You may be asked to log onto ModBase the first time you click on the pictures. It is simplest after logging in to just click on the picture again to get to the specific info on that model.

-  Orthologous Genes in Other Species
  Orthologies between human, mouse, and rat are computed by taking the best BLASTP hit, and filtering out non-syntenic hits. For more distant species reciprocal-best BLASTP hits are used. Note that the absence of an ortholog in the table below may reflect incomplete annotations in the other species rather than a true absence of the orthologous gene.
