ICOS Antibody (670306) [Unconjugated]

Mouse ICOS (inducible co-stimulator), also called AILIM (activiation-inducible lymphocyte immunomediatory molecule) and CRP-1 (CD28-related protein-1), is a member of the CD28 family of immune costimulatory receptors. Other family members are CD28, CTLA-4 and PD-1. Mouse ICOS is a homodimeric type I transmembrane protein consisting of 200 amino acids (aa) with a putative 20 aa signal sequence, a 122 aa extracellular domain, a 23 aa transmembrane region, and a 35 aa cytoplasmic domain. ICOS shares approximately 39% aa similarity with CD 28 and CTLA-4. Mouse and human ICOS share approximately 72% aa identity. ICOS is expressed on most CD45RO⁺ cells. ICOS expression is upregulated within approximately 24‑48 hours of activation on T_h primed cells. B7-H2, a member of the B7 family of costimulatory ligands, has been identified as the ICOS ligand. The B7-H2/ICOS interaction appears to play roles in T cell dependent B cell activation and T_h differentiation.
