CD86

HGNC ID: 1705

Target Abstract:

CD86, also known as B7.2, is a transmembrane protein with a molecular weight of 80 kDa. It is expressed on dendritic cells, monocytes, memory T lymphocytes, germinal center B lymphocytes, activated B lymphocytes, and activated T lymphocytes. CD86 belongs to the immunoglobulin superfamily, and its ligands are CD28 and CD152 (CTLA4). CD86 interacts with the co-stimulatory receptor CD28 and the inhibitory receptor CTLA4, serving as a major co-stimulatory factor for inducing T lymphocyte proliferation and IL-2 production.

Human CD86 Predicted Functions

Predicted to enable signaling receptor activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including CD40 signaling pathway; positive regulation of macromolecule metabolic process; and regulation of T cell activation. Predicted to act upstream of or within defense response to virus and toll-like receptor signaling pathway. Located in centriolar satellite; extracellular exosome; and plasma membrane. Implicated in several diseases, including Henoch-Schoenlein purpura; autoimmune disease (multiple); chronic lymphocytic leukemia; chronic obstructive pulmonary disease; and systemic scleroderma. Biomarker of several diseases, including autoimmune disease (multiple); cryoglobulinemia; hematologic cancer (multiple); lung disease (multiple); and pulmonary hypertension.
