GeneID: 21947 Mouse CD40LG

Swiss-port # P27548 Mouse CD40 ligand

Gene Symbol Cd40lg
Gene Full Name CD40 ligand
Background CD154 / CD40L (CD40 ligand) is a member of the tumor necrosis factor family, and is expressed primarily on activated CD4+ lymphocytes, but also on mast cells, basophils, eosinophils and human dendritic cells. Its counter-receptor CD40 is expressed on antigen presenting cells, including dendritic cells, macrophages, and B cells, and also on fibroblasts. Triggering of CD40 by CD40L causes maturation of dendritic cells and upregulation of antigen presentation in functions of the MHC and costimulatory molecules. CD40L also functions as a direct stimulating factor for T cells. CD40L plays also roles e.g. in antibody class switching and modulation of apoptosis in the germinal center.
Function Cytokine that binds to TNFRSF5. Mediates B-cell proliferation in the absence of co-stimulus as well as IgE production in the presence of IL-4. Involved in immunoglobulin class switching (By similarity). [UniProt]
Research Area Cell Biology and Cellular Response antibody; Developmental Biology antibody; Immune System antibody
Calculated MW 29 kDa
PTM The soluble form derives from the membrane form by proteolytic processing.
N-linked glycan is a mixture of high mannose and complex type. Glycan structure does not influence binding affinity to CD40.
Not O-glycosylated.
