CD40 Monoclonal / VioBright FITC / FGK45.5
Product Details
| Description | Clone FGK45.5 recognizes the mouse CD40 antigen, a 40–50 kDa glycoprotein and member of the tumor necrosis factor receptor (TNFR) family. CD40 is expressed on B lymphocytes, macrophages, and dendritic cells. It is an important costimulatory molecule for B cells as well as dendritic cells, monocytes, and other antigen-presenting cells (APCs). The interaction of CD40 on B cells with its ligand CD154 is involved in B cell activation and differentiation; engagement of CD40 on dendritic cells leads to maturation. | Clone FGK45 can be used for blocking of CD40/CD154 interaction and for in vitro and in vivo activation of CD40 expressing APCs. | |

About CD40
This gene is a member of the TNF-receptor superfamily. The encoded protein is a receptor on antigen-presenting cells of the immune system and is essential for mediating a broad variety of immune and inflammatory responses including T cell-dependent immunoglobulin class switching, memory B cell development, and germinal center formation. AT-hook transcription factor AKNA is reported to coordinately regulate the expression of this receptor and its ligand, which may be important for homotypic cell interactions. Adaptor protein TNFR2 interacts with this receptor and serves as a mediator of the signal transduction. The interaction of this receptor and its ligand is found to be necessary for amyloid-beta-induced microglial activation, and thus is thought to be an early event in Alzheimer disease pathogenesis. Mutations affecting this gene are the cause of autosomal recessive hyper-IgM immunodeficiency type 3 (HIGM3). Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants of this gene encoding distinct isoforms have been reported. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2014]
