CD40L Monoclonal / APC / 5C8
Product Details
Description | The antibody specifically recognizes the human CD154 antigen, a 39 kDa transmembrane glycoprotein, also known as CD40L, gp39, T-BAM, TRAP, or Ly-62. CD154 is transiently up-regulated on activated CD4+ T cells and plays an important role as a costimulatory molecule in T cell/antigen-presenting cell interactions through ligation of CD40. The antibody has been shown to block the activation of antigen-presenting cells by T helper cells in vitro. Because of its transient expression within hours after activation, CD154 can be used as a marker for activated antigen-specific CD4+ T cells. The addition of a CD40-blocking antibody during the stimulation of cell suspensions prevents the down-regulation of CD154 expression induced by interaction with CD40 expressed on antigen-presenting cells. For intracellular detection of CD154 expression or if a pure population of enriched T cells is used, blocking of CD40 is not required. | |

About CD40L
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]

About APC
Allophycocyanin (APC) is a fluorescent protein derived from cyanobacteria and red algae and a potent donor fluorophore to create tandem dyes that can be excited off the 633-640 nm laser. APC has an excitation peak at 650 nm and a emission peak at 660 nm.
