Product Overview
Clone CA-4 is a mouse monoclonal antibody that recognizes T-cell surface glycoprotein CD4 in human samples and is validated for IHC, ICC/IF and flow cytometry.
CD4 is a transmembrane glycoprotein on helper T cells, and also on some monocytes and macrophages, that acts as a co-receptor for MHC class II–peptide complexes. It recruits the kinase LCK to boost T-cell receptor signaling, and it is the primary receptor used by HIV-1 to enter cells.

Customization & Add-ons: Can’t find the antibody you need—or require a custom format for your assay? We can help you source the best match or support custom antibody solutions for diverse research needs, including species and isotype selection, conjugations and labeling (e.g., HRP/AP, biotin, fluorophores), purification grade options (Protein A/G, affinity purified), formulation preferences (buffer selection, carrier-free, glycerol-free), custom concentrations and aliquoting, low-endotoxin options for cell-based work, and application-focused QC/validation support (project dependent).
