anti-CD154 / CD40L antibody [TRAP-1]

anti-CD154 / CD40L antibody [TRAP-1] for Flow cytometry and Human

Overview

Product Description Mouse Monoclonal antibody [TRAP-1] recognizes CD154 / CD40L
Mouse anti Human CD154 antibody, clone TRAP-1 recognises the human CD40 ligand, also known as CD154, TNF-related activation protein (TRAP) or T-cell antigen Gp39. CD154 is a 261 amino acid ~ 32kDa single pass, type-1 transmembrane glycoprotein (UniProt: P29965). CD154 is expressed on activated T lymphocytes, predominantly CD4 +ve and also on some basophils and mast cells.Mouse anti Human CD154 antibody, clone TRAP-1 binds to CD154 at an epitope distinct from the CD40 binding site (Kroczek et al. 1994).

GeneID: 959 Human CD40LG

Swiss-port # P29965 Human CD40 ligand

Gene Symbol CD40LG
Gene Full Name CD40 ligand
Background The protein encoded by this gene is expressed on the surface of T cells. It regulates B cell function by engaging CD40 on the B cell surface. A defect in this gene results in an inability to undergo immunoglobulin class switch and is associated with hyper-IgM syndrome. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
Function 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.

Release of soluble CD40L from platelets is partially regulated by GP IIb/IIIa, actin polymerization, and an matrix metalloproteinases (MMP) inhibitor-sensitive pathway. [UniProt]
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. [UniProt]
