A new member of the immunoglobulin superfamily--CTLA-4.

TL;DR: CTLA-4 is mainly expressed in activated lymphocytes and is coinduced with T-cell-mediated cytotoxicity in inducible models of this process and could encode a 223-amino-acid protein clearly belonging to the immunoglobulin superfamily.
Journal Article

CTLA-8, cloned from an activated T cell, bearing AU-rich messenger RNA instability sequences, and homologous to a herpesvirus saimiri gene.

TL;DR: CTLA-8 may belong to the growing set of virus-captured functionally important cellular genes related to the immune system or to cell death and cell survival, and is discussed in the context of other genes of this herpesvirus homologous to known immunologically active molecules.
Journal Article

CTLA-4 and CD28 activated lymphocyte molecules are closely related in both mouse and human as to sequence, message expression, gene structure, and chromosomal location.

TL;DR: CD28 and CTLA-4 were found to be strikingly similar in most respects, in terms of structure, sequence, expression, and gene location, furthermore in two species, strongly suggesting that their genes are the direct products of a duplication event and raising the possibility of functional homologies between the corresponding proteins.
Journal ArticleDOI

A Novel Lysosome-Associated Membrane Glycoprotein, DC-LAMP, Induced upon DC Maturation, Is Transiently Expressed in MHC Class II Compartment

TL;DR: A novel lysosome-associated membrane glycoprotein localized on chromosome 3q26.3-q27, DC-LAMP, which is homologous to CD68, was identified and found in the MHC class II compartment immediately before the translocation of MHCclass II molecules to the cell surface, after which it concentrates into perinuclear l Lysosomes.
Journal ArticleDOI

A New Member of the Rho Family, Rnd1, Promotes Disassembly of Actin Filament Structures and Loss of Cell Adhesion

TL;DR: It is suggested that three proteins that form a distinct branch of the Rho family control rearrangements of the actin cytoskeleton and changes in cell adhesion, including Rnd1, which has a low affinity for GDP and spontaneously exchanges nucleotide rapidly in a physiological buffer.
