Product Specific Information

Specificity: A54 binds specifically to the D1 domain of CD40 (and can only bind to the intact i.e. non-truncated version of CD40 and when an AD2 peptide tag has not been added) and can recognise CD40 on a B cell line (BJAB).

Preparation: A54 human anti-CD40 was selected from the n-CoDeR phage display library after 4 rounds of selections using biotinylated CD40-Fcgamma fusion protein as bait and subsequent capture of bound phages on streptavidin-caoted magnetic beads.

Target Information

The CD40 antigen is a single chain glycoprotein that is known to be a member of the tumor necrosis factor/nerve growth factor superfamily and shows a significant homology to the Hodgkin`s disease associated antigen, CD30. CD40 is present on all B cells except plasma cells and is also found on some epithelial cells, carcinomas and lymphoid dendritic cells. CD40 has been found to be essential in 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 CD40, which may be important for homotypic cell interactions. Adaptor protein TNFR2 interacts with CD40 and serves as a mediator of the signal transduction. The interaction of CD40 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. Two alternatively spliced transcript variants of CD40 encoding distinct isoforms have been reported. Diseases associated with CD40 dysfunction include Type 3 Hyper-Igm immunodeficiency and CD40 ligand deficiency.
