CD276 (Cluster of Differentiation 276) is a human protein encoded by the CD276 gene.

Function

Costimulatory B7 molecules (e.g., B7-1, or CD80; MIM 112203) signal through CD28 (MIM 186760) family molecules such as CD28, CTLA4 (MIM 123890), and ICOS (MIM 604558).[supplied by OMIM]

CD276 (aka B7-H3), an immune checkpoint molecule, is expressed by some solid tumours and is the target of anticancer candidates such as MGA271.
