CD40 Protein, Human (HEK293, mFc)

CD40 protein is a TNFSF5/CD40LG receptor that transduces signals through TRAF6 and MAP3K8-mediated pathways, activates ERK in macrophages and B cells, and induces immunoglobulin secretion. CD40 exists as monomers and homodimers and interacts with TRAF proteins (TRAF1, TRAF2, TRAF3, TRAF5, and TRAF6). CD40 Protein, Human (HEK293, mFc) is the recombinant human-derived CD40 protein, expressed by HEK293, with C-mFc labeled tag.

Biological Activity

Description

CD40 protein is a TNFSF5/CD40LG receptor that transduces signals through TRAF6 and MAP3K8-mediated pathways, activates ERK in macrophages and B cells, and induces immunoglobulin secretion. CD40 exists as monomers and homodimers and interacts with TRAF proteins (TRAF1, TRAF2, TRAF3, TRAF5, and TRAF6). CD40 Protein, Human (HEK293, mFc) is the recombinant human-derived CD40 protein, expressed by HEK293, with C-mFc labeled tag.

Background

CD40 Protein, acting as the receptor for TNFSF5/CD40LG, is instrumental in transducing signals through TRAF6- and MAP3K8-mediated pathways, leading to the activation of ERK in macrophages and B cells and subsequent induction of immunoglobulin secretion. Existing in both monomeric and homodimeric forms, CD40 Protein exhibits variations in its homodimeric structure, as observed in the bladder carcinoma cell line Hu549. The receptor interacts with key signaling molecules such as TRAF1, TRAF2, TRAF3, TRAF5, and TRAF6, with the crucial interaction occurring between CD40 Protein, TRAF6, and MAP3K8, thereby playing a pivotal role in ERK activation.

Product Properties

Appearance

Lyophilized powder.

Endotoxin Level

<1 EU/μg, determined by LAL method.

Reconstitution

It is not recommended to reconstitute to a concentration less than 100 μg/mL in ddH2O. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% BSA, 5% HSA, 10% FBS or 5% Trehalose).

Storage & Stability

Stored at -20°C for 2 years from date of receipt. After reconstitution, it is stable at 4°C for 1 week or -20°C for longer (with carrier protein). It is recommended to freeze aliquots at -20°C or -80°C for extended storage.

Shipping

Room temperature in continental US; may vary elsewhere.
