Quick Overview for CD40 antibody (Extracellular Domain) (ABIN118121)

Target: CD40

Reactivity: Mouse

Host: Rat

Clonality: Monoclonal

Conjugate: This CD40 antibody is un-conjugated

Application: Flow Cytometry (FACS), Functional Studies (Func), Immunohistochemistry (Frozen Sections) (IHC (fro)), Enzyme Immunoassay (EIA)

Clone: 01-03-23

Product Details anti-CD40 Antibody

Binding Specificity: Extracellular Domain

Specificity: Specificity was checked by ELISA and flow cytometry using BHK cells transfected with mouse CD40. It does not react with normal mouse Ig or with human IgG1 and will stain most mature mouse B cells. It does not cross react with mouse T cells. Clone 3/23 is a powerful activator of normal B cells especially in the presence of IL-4.

Purification: Affinity Chromatography on Protein G.

Endotoxin Level: Low Endotoxin

Immunogen: Extracellular domain of Mouse CD40 and the Fc portion of Human IgG1. Spleen cells from immunised LOU/c rats were fused with cells of the Ag8 mouse myeloma cell line.

Isotype: IgG2a

Target Details for CD40

Target: CD40

Alternative Name: CD40

Background: CD40 is a costimulatory molecule of the TNF receptor superfamily and is expressed on many cell types, such as B cells, monocytes/macrophages, dendritic cells, endothelial cells, fibroblasts or vascular smooth muscle cells. Interaction of CD40 and its ligand CD154 (CD40L) is required for the generation of antibody responses to T-dependent antigens as well as for the development of germinal centers and memory B cells. In monocytes/macrophages CD40 engagement induces production of pro-inflammatory cytokines and chemokines. CD40-CD154 interactions are also critical for development of CD4 T cell-dependent effector functions. CD40 links innate and adaptive immune responses to bacterial stimuli and serves as an important regulator affecting functions of other costimulatory molecules.Synonyms: B-cell surface antigen CD40, Bp50, CD40L receptor, CDw40, TNFRSF5, Tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily member 5
