UniProt data
UniProt name: CD4_HUMAN (P01730)
Gene name: CD4
Organism: Homo sapiens (Human).
Function: (Microbial infection) Acts as a receptor for human immunodeficiency virus-1 (PubMed:2214026, PubMed:16331979, PubMed:9641677). Down-regulated by HIV-1 Vpu (PubMed:17346169). Acts as a receptor for Human Herpes virus 7/HHV-7 (PubMed:7909607). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16331979, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17346169, ECO:0000269|PubMed:2214026, ECO:0000269|PubMed:7909607, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9641677}.
Subcellular location: Cell membrane {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12517957}; Single-pass type I membrane protein {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12517957}. 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.
Transmembrane domains:
- 397-418, 22 AA, Helical. {ECO:0000255}.
Sequence: 458 AA
