The protein structure consists of an N-terminus signal peptide, a sema domain, a C2 type Ig domain, a transmembrane region, and a cytoplasmic tail (2). Semaphorin-4A exerts diverse biological effects through several different receptor-mediated pathways and plays important roles in immunity, angiogenesis, neuronal migration, and tumor progression. Semaphorin-4A enhances T cell activation by interacting with TIM-2, and T cell-derived Semaphorin-4A plays a role in helper T cell (Th) differentiation (3,4). In regulatory T cells (Tregs), Semaphorin-4A plays an important role in enhancing stability through interactions with neuropilin-1 (Nrp1) (5). Semaphorin-4A interacts with Plexin D1, which is expressed in endothelial cells and negatively regulates angiogenesis (6). In presynaptic neurons, Semaphorin-4A promotes the development of inhibitory or excitatory synapses through interactions with Plexin B1 or Plexin B2, respectively (7). Semaphorin-4A has been identified as a therapeutic target to promote antitumor responses, and its expression in the tumor microenvironment (TME) has been suggested as a biomarker to predict response to immunotherapy (8).\n\u003cb\u003eAlternate Names\u003c\/b\u003e\nCORD10; FLJ12287; RP35; SEM4A; Sema B; sema domain, immunoglobulin domain (Ig), transmembrane domain (TM) and short cytoplasmic domain, (semaphorin) 4A; sema domain, immunoglobulin domain (Ig), transmembrane domain (TM) and short cytoplasmic domain, 4A; SEMA4A; SEMAB; semaphorin 4A; semaphorin B; Semaphorin-4A; Semaphorin-B; SEMB\n\n\u003cb\u003eSpecification\u003c\/b\u003e\n\nREACTIVITY: H\nSENSITIVITY: Endogenous\nSource\/Isotype: Rabbit IgG","brand":"CST","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46800375709865,"sku":"31004S","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/cst-31004s","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
