PE Anti-Mouse VISTA Antibody[MIH63]

PD-1H, also known as VISTA, is a 309 aa type I transmembrane protein that is composed of seven exons. PD-1H has one Ig-V like domain, and its sequence is similar to the Ig-V domains of the members of CD28 and B7 families. PD-1H is expressed by a subset of T cells, macrophages, dendritic cells, neutrophils, and natural killer cells (NK). It has been proposed that PD-1H can be useful to modulate the host immune response to allogeneic transplants due to its ability to preferentially suppress CD4+ T cell-mediated immunity. Protein function: Immunoregulatory receptor which inhibits the T-cell response (PubMed:21383057, PubMed:24743150, PubMed:25267631). May promote differentiation of embryonic stem cells, by inhibiting BMP4 signaling (PubMed:20042595). May stimulate MMP14-mediated MMP2 activation (By similarity) [The UniProt Consortium]
