• Description: TIM-4 (T cell; immunoglobulin; mucin-4), also known as SMUCKLER, is an approximately 60 kDa member of the TIM family of immune regulating proteins. TIMs are type I transmembrane proteins with one Ig-like V domain and one Ser/Thr-rich mucin domain. Sequence alignment with the human TIM-4 shows that mature cynomolgus monkey TIM-4 has a predicted 280 aa extracellular domain (ECD), a 21 aa transmembrane segment and a 43 aa cytoplasmic tail. Within the ECD, cynomolgus monkey TIM-4 shares 87 % and 48 % aa sequence identity with human and mouse TIM-4, respectively. Structurally, TIM-4 is distinguished from other TIMs by the presence of an RGD motif in its Ig domain and the lack of a site for tyrosine phosphorylation in its cytoplasmic tail. The mucin domain in TIM-4 is larger than in TIM-1or TIM-3. TIM-4 is expressed by macrophages and mature dendritic cells but not by lymphocytes. TIM-4 binds specifically to TIM-1 which is also the cellular receptor for the hepatitis A virus, and has been implicated in the development of asthma. Among hematopoietic cells, TIM-1 is expressed on activated B and T cells, preferentially in the Th2 subset of CD4+ T cells. The interaction of TIM-4 with TIM-1 induces co-stimulatory and hyperproliferative signals in T cells.
• Predicted N Terminal: Glu25
• Form: Lyophilized from a 0.2 μm filtered solution in NaH2PO4, NaCl and EDTA.
