Molecular Mass
Recombinant Mouse PDCD1 consists of 154 amino acids and has a predicted molecular mass of 17.6 kDa. In SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions, the apparent molecular mass of rm PDCD1 is approximately 40-45 kDa due to glycosylation.
Background
Inhibitory cell surface receptor involved in the regulation of T-cell function during immunity and tolerance. Upon ligand binding, inhibits T-cell effector functions in an antigen-specific manner. Possible cell death inducer, in association with other factors (By similarity).
