Cynomolgus CRTAM Protein

Recombinant Cynomolgus CRTAM Protein is expressed from HEK293 with hFc tag at the C-Terminus.It contains Ser18-Gly287. Class-I Restricted T Cell-Associated Molecule (CRTAM) is a protein that is expressed after T cell activation. The interaction of CRTAM with its ligand, nectin-like 2 (Necl2), is required for the efficient production of IL-17, IL-22, and IFNgamma by murine CD4 T cells, and it plays a role in optimal CD8 T and NK cell cytotoxicity. CRTAM promotes the pro-inflammatory cytokine profile, therefore, it may take part in the immunopathology of autoimmune diseases such as diabetes type 1 or colitis.
